[. . . ] www. philips. com Power Protector directions for use This product, like all surge protectors, has a limited life. Even under normal circumstances, and in the absence of defects, the product's life will end when the components providing surge protection exceed capacity and cease to provide protection from surges and spikes. [. . . ] All connected equipment should be plugged directly into your surge protector. Using any extension cord, adapters, other grounding wires or electrical connections in conjunction with a Philips surge protector will void all Philips warranties. Philips surge protectors use an indicator display light to alert you to your surge system's effectiveness. The "Protection Working" indicator light shows "ON" when surge protection circuitry is functioning properly. If that light is off, it indicates that your surge unit has reached capacity and is no longer able to protect against surges. Some units also have a "Ground" indicator light to show you that the wall outlet is wired properly. Phone/Fax/Modem Connections Some Philips surge protector models come with Solid State Phone/ Fax/Modem surge protection. Instead of running a connection directly from your Phone/Fax/Modem to the wall jack, you must pass the connection through the protected jacks on your surge protector. Coaxial Cable Connections Some Philips surge protector models come with Coaxial Cable surge protection. Instead of running a connection directly from your TV/ VCR/DVDR/Cable Box to the wall jack, you must pass the connection through the protected coaxial connections on your surge protector. · · Connect your phone/fax/modem line from your wall outlet to the "Input" jack on the surge protector. Connect a phone cord into the "Output" jack on the surge protector, and connect the other end of the phone cord to the phone/fax/modem jack of the device you want to protect. To claim damage under the Connected Equipment Warranty as a result of telephone service line transients, equipment must be properly connected to a Philips surge protector which offers telephone line protection, and your telephone service equipment must include a properly installed and operating "primary protection" device at the service entrance. (Such devices are normally added during telephone line installation. ) If you fail to connect the phone/fax/ modem protection your connected equipment will not be covered by the Connected Equipment Warranty. Most modem damage can be prevented if you take the time to connect the phone/fax/modem protection. · Connect your incoming cable/broadband line to the "Input" coaxial connector on the surge protector. [. . . ] Note: This device features an internal protection that will disconnect the surge protective component at the end of its useful life but will maintain power to the load - now unprotected. If this situation is undesirable for the application, follow the manufacturer's instructions for replacing the device. [. . . ]
