This switch features a hidden button design. A light press cycles through the gears, with different LED light colors corresponding to different power outputs to meet various usage needs.
II. Operation Guide
1. Switch Location
The hidden button switch is located inside the circular hole on the DC head product.
2. Gear Switching
A light press cycles through the gears in the following order:
- Gear 1 (Blue Light): 360W Mode

3. Operation Confirmation
After each press, the LED light color instantly displays the current gear. The device automatically runs at the set power and has a memory function, so no repeated operation is needed next time.
III. Important Notes
- Ensure the device's power matches the gear to avoid error messages from the device.
- When switching gears, press lightly and quickly. A long press may cause the switch to cycle continuously.
- The red gear (below 150W) is compatible with low-power devices and is not suitable for high-power use.
- If the light flashes or there is no response, disconnect power for 10 seconds and then restart.
IV. Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: The button does not respond. What should I do?
Check the power connection and make sure the button surface is clean and unobstructed. If the issue persists, disconnect power for 10 seconds and restart.
Q2: Can I skip gears directly?
No. Skipping a gear is not supported; you must cycle through sequentially from Gear 1 to Gear 5.
Q3: What does a flashing LED light mean?
A flashing light typically indicates a power mismatch or an unstable connection. Ensure the connected device's power requirement matches the selected gear, then reconnect.
Q4: Does the converter remember my last gear setting?
Yes. The device has a memory function and will automatically resume the last selected gear when powered on again.
Q5: Which DELL laptop models are compatible?
This converter is specifically designed for DELL models 7.4x5.0mm, supporting power inputs of 360W and below. For other models, please check your laptop's power specification before use.
