3.1 Connect your surge

protector

Warning

Carefully read the safety precautions in

section 1 Important before you connect your

surge protector.

Caution

Do not use any extension cords, adapters,

other grounding wires or electrical connec-

tions with your surge protector. Doing so will

void all Philips warranties.

To connect your surge protector:

1. Plug power cord into a properly grounded

outlet.

2. Plug components’ power cords directly

into your surge protector.

3.2 Connect your surge

p rotector to a phone/fax/

modem

Your surge protector may offer Solid State

phone/fax/modem protection. This requires

you to connect your phone/fax/modem to

the protected jacks on your surge protector

instead of connecting directly to the wall jack.

Philips surge protectors with telephone

protection are designed to provide maximum

protection from surges present on two-line

or “dial-up” telephone service. Other com-

munications networks which happen to use

modular jacks may not benefit from this

protection.

Caution

The telephone feature of this surge protector

could be rendered inoperable if improperly

installed.

Caution

If you fail to connect the phone/fax/modem

protection, your connected equipment will

not be covered by the Philips Connected

Equipment Warranty. Most modem damage

can be prevented if you take the time to con-

nect the phone/fax/modem protection.

To connect phone/fax/modem protection:

1. Connect your phone/fax/modem line from

your wall jack to the “input” jack on your

surge protector.

2. Connect a phone cord into the “output”

jack on the surge protector.

3. Connect the other end of the phone cord

to the phone/fax/modem jack of the device

you want to protect.

Note

To claim damage under the Philips Connected

Equipment Warranty as a result of telephone

service line transients, your equipment must

be properly connected to a Philips surge pro-

tector 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.)

Your surge protector may offer “splitter”

phone line protection. This works by splitting

a single incoming phone line into two outputs,
