OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.

 Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 1-Outlet Electronic Equipment Surge Protector. Your 
surge protector protects your valuable electronic equipment from damage caused by sudden 
electrical spikes and surges and ensures the steady performance of the connected electronic 
equipment by filtering electromagnetic and radio frequency interference.

The PROTECTED WHEN LIT indicator does 
not light. 

The surge protector's AC line is no longer 
protected from surges; replace the surge 
protector. The surge protector may have 
received a power surge or spike beyond its 
specified limits that might overload the 
protection circuitry and make it inactive. If this 
happened, the surge protector should have 
absorbed enough of the surge to protect the 
connected equipment, but it will not protect 
against future surges and spikes

.

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.

arrestor and might not protect against 
lightning-induced voltage surges.

•

Be sure the total wattage of all connected 
devices does not exceed 1875 watts.

•

Use the surge protector only with a three-
prong standard AC plug. The surge 
protector cannot provide protection without 
a grounded AC source.

•

Retain Instructions — Retain the safety 
and operating instructions for future 
reference.

•

Damage — Unplug the surge protector from 
the wall outlet and replace it:

Swift Detection and 
Protection — Detects and 
protects against a power 
surge of up to 6,000 volts 
and 42,500 amps within 1 
nanosecond (1 billionth of a 
second).

Power Shutdown 
Protection — Shuts down 
power when surge protection 
is depleted by a surge. This 
protects the connected 
appliances from being 
damaged.
