Turning your Marodyne LiV on and off: important considerations

When using your Marodyne LiV device, there are a few important considerations regarding how to switch it on and off, especially for users who may find bending down more difficult. Here’s a simple guide to help:

Device setup

The Marodyne LiV device is connected to a wall socket via a kettle cord plugged into a power source. The device has a rocker switch that is designed for turning it on and off.

Switching the device on and off

It’s recommended to use the rocker switch on the Marodyne LiV device to turn it off rather than switching it off at the wall socket. Here’s why:

Safety: The rocker switch is specifically designed to handle the power flow and to turn the device on and off safely. This switch quickly and cleanly breaks the circuit, reducing the risk of electrical arcs

Wear and tear: Frequently plugging and unplugging a device at the wall socket can cause wear and tear on both the plug and the socket. Over time, this can lead to a poor connection.

Alternative methods

For those who cannot bend down to reach the rocker switch:

Turn off at the wall socket: If it is absolutely necessary to turn off your Marodyne device at the wall socket, this can be done safely using the on/off switch at the wall socket. Under no circumstances unplug your device from the wall socket without switching off the wall socket first.  

Safety note: Make sure the green light is off before unplugging your Marodyne device. This indicates that the device is completely off and not drawing any power. 

SwitchBots: Do not use any gadgets to remotely control your device. It will negate your warranty.

In summary, while it’s generally better and safer to use the rocker switch on the Marodyne LiV device to turn it on and off, if completely necessary, you can switch it off at the wall socket. Do not unplug the device from the wall socket until all standby lights have gone out. This approach minimises risks and ensures safe operation.
