Solution
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 in active. If th is
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

Your surge protector is supplied with pairs of
indication tags to identify which device’s
power cords are connected to which AC
socket. Stick a large color tag on the power
cord near the base of the device and the
same color small tag next to the surge
protector’s target AC socket.

LIMITED WARRANTY — This surge protector product is warranted by RadioShack to the original purchaser against manufacturing defects in material and workmanship under normal use for one (1) year from
the date of purchase (the “Warranty Period”) from RadioShack company owned stores and authorized RadioShack franchisees and dealers. In the event of a covered product defect during the Warranty Period,
RadioShack will, at its option, unless otherwise provided by law: (a) correct the defect by surge protector repair without charge for parts and labor; (b) replace the surge protector with one of the same or similar
design; or (c) refund the purchase price of the surge protector.
CONNECTED EQUIPMENT GUARANTEE — RadioShack warrants to the original purchaser of the surge protector that if any electronic equipment (the “Connected Equipment”), which is properly installed and
connected (as defined below) to the surge pr otector and is damaged during the Warranty Period by a transient volt age sur ge/spike from th e AC po wer line, te l ephon e line or coaxial line that enters the Connected
Equipment through the surge protector, RadioShack will reimburse to the original purchaser of the surge protector the lower of the: (a) Connected Equipment repair char ges; (b) purchase price of equipment com parable (as determined by RadioShack) to the Connected Equipment; or (c) original purchase price of the Connected Equipment, up to a maximum of five thousand U.S. dollars ($5,000.00) (the “Equipment
Limit”). The Connected Equipment Guarantee does not cover data loss or any other damages excluded in the all capitalized paragraph below. In order to qualify for Connected Equipment reimbursement, the
surge protector must be returned to RadioShack and inspection of the surge protector must show its protection capacity was exhausted by a surge. “Properly installed and connected” means the surge protector
must be plugged directly into a properly wire d anGýgrounded AC outlet; no extension cords, adap ters, ot her gr ound wires or electr i cal conne ctions may b e used to con nect the surge protector to AC power and no
more than one piece of Connected Equipment may be connected to any one surge protector outlet. The wiring in the building must comply with all applicable codes (NEC, CSA, etc.), and all wires (power, telephone and coaxial) leading into the Connecte d Eq uipme nt mu st pass thr ough the sur ge pr otector. To claim damage to Connected Equipment as a result of teleph one l ine transie nts, the s urge protec tor m ust provide telephone line protection, and your telephone service equipment must include a properly installed and operating “primary protection” device at the service entrance. Primary protection devices are normally
available from the telephone company and added during telephone line installation. To claim damage to Connected Equipment as a result of coaxial line transients, the surge protector must provide coaxial line
protection.
This Limited Warranty and Connected Equipment Guarantee applies only to the original purchaser of the surge protector.

If t he Connected Equipment is not to b e r epair ed,
get a written quotation for the purchase price of comparab le rep lacemen t equip ment. In no eve nt will RadioShack r eimburse mo re th an the E qu ipment Li mit. T he re pair b ill or estimate from the authorized service center must indicate that the damage to the Connected Equipment was surge-induced; and
