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.

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.)

Surge protector models with telephone
protection are designed to provide
maximum protection from surges present
on standard two wire “dial up” telephone
service. Other communications
networks which happen to use modular
jacks may not benefit from this
protection. CAUTION: The telephone
feature of this product could be rendered
inoperable if improperly installed.

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. This surge 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 (connected equipment) - now unprotected,
thus, acting as a multiple outlet strip. If this situation is undesirable for the
application, the surge protector should be replaced. Units with Power Blocker™
protection will cease to conduct power through the unit once they have reached
capacity. At that time, the unit needs to be replaced to ensure proper protection.

Power Blocker™ Protection Feature
Philips products with Power Blocker™ protection are designed to
sacrifice themselves in order to save equipment connected to it. Their
circuitry is designed to cut off all power to AC outlets in the event of an
electrical or power surge that overwhelms their protection. If your surge
protector is not allowing current to pass and the protection working LED
is off, then your surge protector has performed its duty – protecting your
equipment – and you must purchase a new unit to replace the expired unit.

Equipment connected to products with Power Blocker™ protection will
be additionally covered in the event of equipment damaged by a lightning
strike. No surge protector will entirely protect against a direct lightning
strike. The surge protector itself is expected to be damaged, thus performing
its duty, and you must purchase a new unit to replace the damaged unit.

Installation instructions
Power Connections
Your Philips surge protector should be plugged directly into a
properly grounded outlet. 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.
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.

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.
