serious personal injury and/or property damage. Interference, interruptions, or surges in the electrical system, or malfunction may cause
unexpected turn on/off of plugged in devices.
WARNING: Do not use any FREEWIRE product to control any device where failure to operate could cause serious personal injury
and/or property damage. Interference, interruptions or surges in the electrical system, or malfunction may cause plugged in devices to fail to
operate as expected.
WARNING: Do not use any FREEWIRE product to control any medical device. Using any FREEWIRE product to control any type of
medical device could result in serious personal injury.

If the FREEWIRE product you intend to use is not listed here, consult the instruction manual for that FREEWIRE product or call 1-800-544-6986
to determine the applicable rating before plugging in or using that FREEWIRE product.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or fire, do not expose any FREEWIRE product to rain or moisture. If a FREEWIRE
product is exposed to rain or moisture, immediately disconnect the FREEWIRE product from the AC outlet to reduce the risk of electric shock
or fire and consult authorized service personnel. NOTE: Outdoor Lamp Receiver may be used outdoors. Bulb Receiver may also be used
outdoors if mounted in correct orientation.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble any FREEWIRE product. No user-serviceable parts are inside.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use any type of plug adaptor with this product.
WARNING: Do not use a Bulb Receiver, Lamp Receiver, Messenger Hub or Outdoor Lamp Receiver to control an appliance. Using a
Bulb Receiver, Lamp Receiver, Messenger Hub or Outdoor Lamp Receiver to control an appliance could damage the appliance or the receiver,
which could result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
WARNING: Do not use a Bulb Receiver or Lamp Receiver to control a lamp or fixture that already has a dimmer on it. Using a Bulb
Receiver or Lamp Receiver to control a lamp or fixture that already has a dimmer on it could damage the lamp, fixture or receiver, which could
result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
WARNING: Use only incandescent bulbs in lamps that are to be controlled by the Lamp Receivers. Using any other type bulbs could
damage bulbs and/or Lamp Receivers.
WARNING: Use only incandescent bulbs in Bulb Receivers. Using any other type bulbs could damage bulbs and/or Bulb Receivers.
WARNING: Do not use any intercom or monitoring system, including a baby monitor, that uses the house wiring to transmit signals
in permanent transmit (or talk) mode when using FREEWIRE products. Transmissions from an intercom or monitoring system that uses
the house wiring to transmit signals could interfere or block out FREEWIRE transmissions in permanent transmit (or talk) mode. It is also
possible that a neighbor's intercom or monitoring system could cause unexpected operation, including failure to operate, of your FREEWIRE
system, or that your FREEWIRE SYSTEM could cause unexpected operation, including failure to operate, of your neighbors intercom or
monitoring system.
WARNING: If unintended operation of any FREEWIRE product is observed, unplug all FREEWIRE products immediately until (1) the
source of the interference is identified and eliminated through selection of a different HOUSE CODE to ensure that neither system
causes unintended operation of the other system or (2) a blocking filter, Black and Decker Model number PZZ01, is installed. Call 1-
888-678-7278 to order. Professional installation recommended. If you cannot identify the source of interference by talking with neighbors
who are using a FREEWIRE or compatible system and you do not want to install a blocking filter, or if you have any questions about identifying
or eliminating interference, please call 1-800-544-6986 before plugging in or using any FREEWIRE product.
Remember to exercise good common sense when using your FREEWIRE system - especially when attaching unattended appliances
or devices to the system. There can be unexpected consequences if FREEWIRE products are not used with care. For example, an empty
coffee pot can be remotely turned on due to unintended operation or interference from a neighbor's FREEWIRE or compatible system. If that
should happen, your coffee pot could be damaged from overheating, which in turn could cause a fire or create a risk of electrical shock. As
another example, if an electric heater is turned on unexpectedly while clothing is draped over it, a fire could result. Accordingly, DO NOT USE
the FREEWIRE system for the control of medical devices, heating appliances, such as portable heaters, or any other appliance or device that
could cause physical injury or property damage if turned on or off while unattended. Similarly, DO NOT USE the FREEWIRE system for the
control of any appliance or device that could cause physical injury or property damage if it fails to operate as expected. Interference,
interruptions or surges in the electrical system, or malfunction may cause plugged in appliances or devices to fail to operate as expected. For
example, if a pipe heater controlled by a FREEWIRE system fails to operate as expected, the pipes could freeze and rupture. For these
reasons, it is important to read, understand and follow all instructions in this manual, and to consider carefully the potential consequences of
unattended or unexpected operation, or failure to operate, of an appliance or device before you attach it to a FREEWIRE system.
