INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the Belkin PureAV Isolator
(the PureAV) for your power protection and
home theater entertainment
needs. You now own the
best-value surge protector
from the market leader in
surge protection.
The PureAV Isolator with Power Filter Technology (PFT) provides the highestquality protection from damaging AC surges and catastrophic lightning
strikes. The PureAV Isolator reduces power-line noise contamination,
known as Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference (EMI/RFI), generated
from both outside and inside the home. This lets you experience a clearer picture
and cleaner sound.
The exceptional PFT design prevents noise generated by one electronics device
from transferring to other devices that are also plugged into the PureAV. The
core technology consists of high-energy Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs), Differential
Isolation Coils, and Special Capacitors that are dedicated to each successive pair
of receptacle banks. Each power filter or “graduating filtration” level isolates and
contains power line noise within each individual pair of receptacle banks.
When home appliances that produce excessive line noise—such as a printer,
scanner, or vacuum cleaner—are used with the PureAV, every filter works
together to ensure that audio static, and/or video interference is reduced
or prevented entirely.
USING THE PUREAV ISOLATOR
1) Before switching the PureAV to the “ON” position, please ensure that it is
plugged into a grounded 120V AC/60Hz (standard) wall outlet.
2) Make sure the diagnostic lights are on, indicating that incoming AC wall power
is safe (the yellow “Protection” and green “LINE OK” indicators should be lit
whenever the unit is on).
3) Next, plug in desired devices. The Master Switch can also be used as a master
on/off controller for all the connected devices.

INSTALLATION OF THE PUREAV ISOLATOR
1) Turn OFF all of your electronic equipment and ensure that the PureAV is also
switched OFF.
2) Plug your electronic devices into the PureAV’s AC outlets.
Note: DO NOT USE two-wire extension cords or adapters with this product.
Using any extension cord in conjunction with the Belkin PureAV will void all
Belkin Components warranties. All connected equipment should be plugged
directly into your Belkin PureAV.
3) Satellite Components: Connect the coaxial cable line from the satellite source
to the PureAV’s satellite connector marked “IN”. Use a second coaxial cable to
connect the PureAV’s cable connector marked “OUT” to the appropriate input
on your satellite device.
4) Coaxial/Antenna: Connect the coaxial cable line from the cable/antenna source
to the PureAV’s cable/antenna connector marked “IN”. Use a second coaxial
cable to connect the PureAV’s cable/antenna marked “OUT” to the appropriate
input on your cable or antenna device.
5) Phone/Fax/Modem Data Connections: Connect a modular phone cord from the
wall jack to the PureAV’s phone jack marked “IN”. Use a second modular phone
cord to connect to the phone line jack marked “IN” on the phone to the
PureAV’s phone jack marked “OUT”.
[Each PureAV model comes with solid-state, phone/fax/modem, Internet-ready
(RJ11 jack) surge protection with a built-in phone line splitter.]
If desired, use a third modular phone cord and connect your computer modem
data line jack marked “IN” with the PureAV’s other phone jack marked “OUT”.
Or you can connect a second data line device of your choice (fax, etc.).
Note: If you fail to connect the phone/fax/modem protection, the Connected
Equipment Warranty will not cover your connected equipment with telecom
ports. Most modem damage can be prevented if you take the time to connect
the phone/fax/modem protection.
6) Your Belkin PureAV should be plugged into a grounded wall outlet
(3-conductor, 120V AC/60Hz) only.
