6-Outlet Surge Protector
POWER CONNECTION
Plug your surge protector into a grounded outlet only. Find a dry, indoor location that allows all power cords to reach the surge protector. All connected equipment should be plugged directly into your surge protector. Using an extension cord to connect the surge protector to the wall outlet will void all warranties.
- Turn OFF power to the surge protector and all equipment. Push the “OFF” side of the switch to turn it off. Plug the surge protector into a properly grounded AC outlet.
- Plug in one of the pieces of equipment, turn the surge protector ON. Turn the equipment ON.Check to see if the equipment is working correctly. If the equipment is working correctly, continue to plug in and turn on the rest of the equipment.
CAUTION
- Do not exceed ratings of 125 volt AC, 15 Amps, 1875 Watts.
- Do not install this device if there is not at least 10 meters (30 feet) or more of wire between the electrical outlet and the electrical service panel.
- This device features internal protection that will disconnect the surge protective component but will maintain power to the load
- now unprotected. If this situation is undesirable for the application, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for replacing the device.
- If there are any problems in getting the surge protector to work properly, stop and read the troubleshooting section of these instructions.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
- The “protected” light (RED) should be on when the power switch is turned on. If this light goes out at any time, it means that your surge protector has served its purpose and protected your equipment, so it should be replaced.
- The light in the ON/OFF power switch also powers up when the unit is turned on.
WALL MOUNTING
- Create a mounting template by placing a sheet of paper over the back of the unit and punching holes in the paper where the mounting holes are on the back of the unit.
- Temporarily secure the paper template (with painter’s tape or another method that will not harm paint or wall coverings) to the area where the unit is to be mounted.
- To mount the surge protector,drill two 3/32in (2.4mm) pilot holes and insert two or four #6 sheetmetal screws (depending on the surge protector model), leaving screw heads protruding 1/8in (3mm). From the surface, place the surge protector over the screw heads and slide into place.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The Power Protection Indicator Light is not lit, there is no AC power to any equipment, or the equipment does not turn on.
- Make sure that the protector is plugged into a working AC outlet.
- Check all AC power connections.
- Make sure the surge protector and connected equipment are turned on.
- Check to see if the circuit breaker on the surge protector needs to be reset (press ON). (On this model it is the ON/OFF switch)
