ILLUMINATE, DISCONNECT THE UNIT IMMEDIATELY.

line problem such as polarity inversion. If the LED does not illuminate, there is a line problem. This

OPERATE YOUR AC-8CX WITH A LINE PROBLEM. IF THE LINE OK LED DOES NOT
ILLUMINATE, DISCONNECT THE UNIT IMMEDIATELY.

The Switched LED on the AC-8CX illuminates when the Power Button is activated indicating that the
Switched outlets are ON. When the Power Button is not initiated, the Switched LED does not illumi-
nate, indicating that there is no power at the Switched Outlets.
