LIGHTNING
Your control has built-in protection cir­cuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in telephone lines. These pro­tection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the telephone lines can dam­age your control.
Lightning damage is not common. Nev­ertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your control during storms to reduce the possibility of dam­age.
