If this surge protector causes harm to the
telephone network, the telephone company
will notify you in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required.
But if advance notice isn’t practical, the
telephone company will notify the customer
as soon as possible. Also, you will be
advised of your right to file a complaint with
the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
Also, the phone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, operations,
or procedures that could affect the
operation of this surge protector. The
telephone company notifies you of these
changes in advance, so you can take the
necessary steps to prevent interruption of
your telephone service.
Your surge protector connects directly to a
modular telephone line jack. If your
telephone wiring does not have a modular
jack, you can update the wiring yourself
using jacks and adapters (available at your
local RadioShack store), or have the
telephone company update the wiring for
you. You must use compatible modular
jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC
Rules and the requirements adopted by the
ACTA. The telephone cord and modular
plug provided is Part 68 compliant for
connecting to the telephone company
network.
The USOC number of the phone jack to be
installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall
plate jack). The USOC number of the LAN
jack to be installed is RJ45.
SURGE PROTECTION
Your surge protector has built-in protection
circuits to reduce the risk of damage from
surges in telephone line and power line
current. These protection circuits meet or
exceed the FCC requirements. However,
lightning striking the surge protector or power
lines can damage your surge protector.
Lightning damage is not common. Never-
theless,ifyouliveinanareathathas
severe electrical storms, we suggest that
you unplug your surge protector when
storms approach to reduce the possibility of
damage.
CARE
Keep the surge protector dry; if it gets wet,
wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the
surge protector only in normal temperature
environments. Handle the surge protector
carefully; do not drop it. Keep the surge
protector away from dust and dirt, and wipe
it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it
looking new.
SERVICE AND REPAIR
If your surge protector is not performing as it
should, take it to your local RadioShack
store for assistance. To locate your nearest
RadioShack, use the store locator feature
on RadioShack’s website
www.radioshack.com, or call 1-800-The-
Shack (843-7422) and follow the menu
options. Modifying or tampering with the
surge protector’s internal components can
cause a malfunction and might invalidate its
warranty.

IMPORTANT
!
Operating this surge protector from a non-
grounded outlet will invalidate your “Connected
Equipment Guarantee” and puts your valuable
equipment at risk.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Condition
The GROUNDED WHEN LIT indicator
does not light.
Solution
Your surge protector is not grounded.
You must move it to a different
grounded, three-prong AC outlet.
!
If the GROUNDED WHEN LIT still does
not light after moving the surge protector
to a grounded outlet, return the product
to RadioShack for assistance.
If the surge protector proves to be
working properly, you may need to
contact a professional electrician to
check your outlets for proper grounding.
Condition
The PROTECTED WHEN LIT and
GROUNDED WHEN LIT indicators turn
off, and
RESET pops out.
Solution
Your surge protector received a current
that exceeded its capacity due to overload.
When this happens, the 15-amp circuit
breaker (located on the side of the case)
trips to prevent possible damage, and
RESET pops out. To reset the surge protec-
tor, disconnect one or more of the con-
nected devices and allow the surge pro-
tector to cool down. Then push
RESET in.
Condition
The PROTECTED WHEN LIT and
GROUNDED WHEN LIT indicators turn off,
and the surge protector sounds an alarm.
Solution
Your surge protector's AC line is no longer
protected from surges and power is not
allowed to pass beyond the alarm. When
the surge protector receives an unusually
strong surge, the built-in protection ab-
sorbs the surge to protect your equipment.
If the surge is strong enough, it diminishes
the protection circuitry’s ability and the
surge protector sounds an alarm. If the
PROTECTED WHEN LIT and
GROUNDED WHEN LIT indicators will
not light, replace the surge protector.
