allowing both a phone and a modem or fax

machine to be connected. Although it does

not allow both devices to be used at the same

time, both devices are protected.

To connect splitter phone line protection, fol-

low the procedure outlined above.

3.3 Connect your surge

protector to a TV/VCR/

DVDR/cable box

Your surge protector may offer Coaxial Cable

phone/fax/modem protection. This requires

you to connect your TV/VCR/DVDR/cable box

to the protected jacks on your surge protector

instead of connecting directly to the wall jack.

hilips surge protectors with coaxial protection

are designed to provide maximum protection

from surges present on standard coax/broad-

band lines. Other communication networks,

such as antennas and satellite dishes, which

happen to use coaxial connections, may not

benefit from this protection.

Caution

The coaxial feature of this product could be

rendered inoperable if improperly installed.

Caution

If you fail to connect the coaxial cable protec-

tion, your connected equipment will not be

covered by the Philips Connected Equipment

Warranty. Most TV/VCR/DVDR/cable box

damage can be prevented if you take the time

to connect the coaxial cable protection.

To connect coaxial cable protection:

1. Connect the incoming cable/broadband line

to the “Input” coaxial connector on your

surge protector.

2. Connect a coaxial cable into the “Output”

coaxial connector on the surge protector.

3. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable

to the “Input” coaxial connector of the

device you want to protect.

Note

To claim damage under the Philips Connected

Equipment Warranty as a result of coaxial line

transients, your equipment must be properly

connected to a Philips surge protector which

offers coaxial line protection.

4 Using your surge protector

Learn how to operate your surge protector

for everyday use.

This product, like all surge protectors, has a

limited life. Even under normal circumstances,

and in the absence of defects, your surge

protector’s life will end when the components

providing surge protection exceed capacity

and cease to provide protection from power

surges and spikes.

Your surge protector features an internal

protection that will disconnect the surge pro-

tective component at the end of its useful life,

but will still maintain power to the connected

equipment (load), acting only as a multiple

power strip. When this occurs, you will have

to replace your surge protector to restore

protection to your connected equipment.

Your surge protector is equipped with an

indicator display light to keep you alert to

its effectiveness. This “Protection Working”

indicator light shows “ON” when your surge

protector’s circuitry is functioning properly.

If this light is off, it indicates that your surge

protector has reached capacity and is no

longer able to protect against surges.

Your surge protector may also offer a

“Ground” indicator light to confirm that the

wall outlet is wired properly.

Caution

Standard surge protectors are not designed

to protect against sustained low voltage

situations. Sustained low voltage situations can

cause damage to some connected equipment.
