LIMITED FIVE-YEAR WARRANTY
AND CONNECTED EQUIPMENT GUARANTEE
LIMITED WARRANTY — This surge protec tor product is warranted by RadioShac k to the original purchas er against manufacturing defects in mater ial an d workm ans hip under nor mal us e
for five (5) years from the date of purchase (the “Warranty
Period”) from Rad ioShack company owned stores and authorized Radi oShack franchisees and dea lers. In the e v ent of a covered product defect during the Warranty Period, RadioShack will,
at its option, unles s otherwise provide d by law: (a) correct t he
defect by surge protect or 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 EQU IPMENT GU ARANTE E — RadioSha ck warrants to the original purchas er of the surge protec tor that if any
electronic equipment (the “Connected Equipment”), which is
properly installe d and connected (as defined below) t o t he surge
protector and is dam aged d uring th e Warranty Pe riod by a transient voltage surge /sp ike f rom the AC p owe r line, tel ephon e l ine
or coaxial line that en ters th e Co nn ected Equ ipm ent thro ug h the
surge protector, RadioS hack will reimburs e to the original p urchaser of the surge prot ector the lower of the: (a) Connected
Equipment repair charges; (b) purchase price of equipment comparable (as determined by RadioShack) to the Connected Equipment; or (c ) original purchase price of the Co nnected Equip m ent,
up to a maximum of fifty thousand U . S. dollars ($50,000.00) (the
“Equipment Limit”). The Connected Equipment Guarantee does
not cover data l oss or any other da mages excluded in t he all
capitalized paragra ph below. In order to qualify for C onnected
Equipment reimbursement, the surge protector must be returned
to RadioShack an d inspec tion of t he surg e protect or must show
its protection capacity was exhausted by a surge. “Properly
installed and connec ted” means the surge pr otector must be
plugged directly in to a properly wired and grou nded AC out let;
no extension cord s, adapters, other ground w ires or electrical
connections may be used to connect the surge protector to AC
power and no more t han one piece of Connected Equip ment
may be connecte d to any o ne surg e protec tor outle t. The w iring
in the building must comply with all applicable codes (NEC, CSA,
etc.), and all wires (power, telephone and coaxial) leading into
the Connected E quipment must pass through the surge p rotector. To claim damage to Connected Equipment as a result of telephone line transients, the surge protector must provide
telephone line protection, and y our telephone serv ic e equipment
must include a properly installed and operating “primary protection” device at the ser vice entra nce. Prim ary protec tion devic es
are normally availab le from the telephone co mpany and added
during telephone line installation. To claim damage to Connected
Equipment as a result of coaxial line transients, the surge protector must provide coa xial line protection.
