Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
Wattbox™ is not receiving power. Wattbox™ is not turned On. • Turn Wattbox™ switch on.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Make sure AC power plug is plugged
into a properly grounded 120 volts
(nominal) wall outlet.
• In some households, a wall switch
may need to be turned on to make
the wall outlet active. Try turning on
the light switches located near the
wall outlet.
Too many devices are connected, causing
an overload, tripping the Thermal Circuit
Breaker.
Component is not receiving power. Component is plugged into a controlled outlet
and the outlet is off.
Component is plugged into a controlled
outlet, but power on the component is not
On. In some instances, a component plugged
into a switched outlet won’t receive power
when Wattbox™ is turned On unless the
component power is also switched On.
• Press Wattbox™ resettable circuit
breaker button in to reset. Please
allow 10 minutes before attempting
to reset. If reset too soon, the
breaker will prematurely sense power
overload and not allow Wattbox™
to operate.
• If the circuit breaker continues to trip,
try moving one or more components
to another Wattbox™. Too much
current may be drawing through one
Wattbox™.
• Log into WattBox interface to turn the
outlet On
• Turn the component power On.
Speakers emit a humming or buzzing noise. Wattbox™ is sharing AC power with
equipment that is not properly grounded.

WARRANTY
SnapAV Surge Protector Lifetime Product Warranty
SnapAV warrants to the purchaser of any standard SnapAV surge protector that the surge protector shall be free of defects in design,
material, or workmanship, and SnapAV will repair or replace any defective unit. For product replacement, see “NOTIFICATION” below.
Lifetime Replacement Policy
Valid only in the United States and Canada. If your SnapAV surge protector becomes damaged while protecting your connected
equipment, you may request an equivalent replacement to the latest technology of that product category. Keep a copy of the original
invoice to verify the product belongs to the original purchaser.
Warning Notice
WARRANTY LIMITATION FOR INTERNET PURCHASERS:
SnapAV products purchased outside of the SnapAV internet website do not carry a valid Connected Equipment Protection Policy unless
purchased from an Authorized SnapAV Dealer.
CAUTION: Audio/Video, computer and/or telephone system installations can be very complex systems, which consist of many
interconnected components. Due to the nature of electricity and surges, a single protector may not be able to completely protect
complex installations. In those cases, a systemic approach using multiple protectors must be employed. Systemic protection requires
professional design. AC power, satellite cables, CATV cables, or telephone/network lines entering the system that do not pass through
this surge protector will render the SnapAV connected equipment protection policy null and void. For additional information on how to
protect your system, please contact SnapAV before connecting your equipment to the surge protector.
SnapAV Surge Protector Connected Equipment Protection Policy
Valid only in the United States and Canada. It is the policy of SnapAV that it will, in its sole discretion, replace, pay to replace at fair
market value, or pay to repair, up to the dollar amount specied below, equipment that is damaged by an AC power, cable, telephone,
or lightning surge while connected to a properly installed SnapAV surge protector. SnapAV must determine that the surge protector
shows signs of surge damage or is operating outside of design specications, relative to its surge protection capability, and under all of
the circumstances failed to protect your connected equipment.
THIS POLICY IS SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS BELOW:
1. PROOF OF PURCHASE REQUIRED:
SnapAV’s connected equipment policy extends to the original purchaser of the SnapAV product only and is non-transferable.
Original purchase receipts must accompany any product return or claim for connected equipment damage.
2. PROPER INSTALLATION:
SnapAV AC protectors must be directly plugged into a properly grounded 3-wire AC outlet. Extension cords, non-grounded two prong
adapters, or other non-SnapAV surge products must not be used. Building wiring and other connections to protected equipment must
conform to applicable codes (NEC or CEC). No other ground wires or ground connections may be used. All wires (ie.g., AC power lines,
telephone lines, signal/data lines, coaxial cable, etc.) leading into the protected equipment must rst pass through a single Sna AV
protector designed for the particular application. The protector and the equipment to be protected must be indoors in a dry location, and
in the same building. SnapAV installation instructions and diagrams must be followed.
3. NOTIFICATION:
You must notify SnapAV within fourteen days of any event precipitating a request for product replacement or payment for connected
equipment damage. A return authorization (RA) number must rst be obtained from the SnapAV Customer Service Department at www.
snapav.com/support before returning the protector to SnapAV. At this time, you must notify SnapAV if you believe you have a claim for
damaged connected equipment.
Once you obtain a RA number, please mark the number on the bottom of the unit and pack it in a shipping carton/box with enough
packing material to protect it during transit. The RA number must also be clearly marked on the outside of the carton. Ship the unit to
SnapAV. Please note that you are responsible for any and all charges related to shipping the unit to SnapAV.
If connected equipment damage was indicated on your RA request, SnapAV will request the make and model of all connected
equipment, a connection diagram of your system, as well as other requests based on the extent of the request for product placement or
payment for connected equipment damage. All requests by SnapAV are to be completed and returned within 30 days. Be sure to note

4. DETERMINATION OF FAILURE:
SnapAV will evaluate the protector for surge damage. The protector must show signs of surge damage or must be performing outside
of design specications relative to its surge protection capability. Opening the enclosure, tampering with, or modifying the unit in any
way shall be grounds for an automatic denial of your request for payment. SnapAV, after evaluating all information provided, shall, in its
sole discretion, determine whether or not your request is eligible for payment.
If the surge protector shows no signs of AC power or signal line surge damage and is working within design specications, SnapAV will
return the unit to you explaining the test results and notifying you of the rejection of your claim. SnapAV reserves the right to inspect
the damaged connected equipment, parts, or circuit boards. SnapAV also reserves the right to inspect the customer’s facility. Damaged
equipment deemed uneconomical to repair must remain available for inspection by SnapAV until the claim is nalized.
5. REQUEST PAYMENTS:
Once SnapAV has determined that you are entitled to compensation, SnapAV will, at its election, pay you the present fair market
value of the damaged equipment, or pay for the cost of the repair, or send you replacement equipment, or pay the equivalence of
replacement equipment.
