Your surge protector is not intended to be used with
We have designed your surge protector to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each surge protector (and each device, such as a telephone or answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the device's ringer equivalence number, or REN.
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five. To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact your local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the FCC Product Identification number in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is shown separately on the label.
If you use more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your telephones might not ring. If ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.
Ô NOTE Ô
Do not connect your computer’s AC plug to the USB CONTROL sockets. The power on and off for these sockets is controlled by your computer.
USING THE SAFETY SLIDE COVER
Your surge protector is equipped with safety slide covers on each of its 11 AC sockets. Slide the cover up to protect each unused AC socket.
USING THE INDICATION TAGS
Your surge protector comes with pairs of indication tags to identify which device’s power cord is connected to which AC socket. Stick a large color tag on the power cord at the rear of the device and the same color small tag next to the surge protector’s target AC socket.
