Warranty And Service - Philips SPR4500 Guía De Usuario

Your surge protector may offer Power
Blocker™ protection, a technology which
directs the surge protector to automatically
sacrifice itself in order to save the equipment
connected to it. This special circuitry cuts off
all power to AC outlets in the event of an
electrical or power surge that overwhelms its
protection.
When this occurs, your surge protector will
not allow any current to pass. The protection
light will be off, alerting you that your surge
protector has performed its duty — protect-
ing your connected equipment. To restore pro-
tection to your equipment, you must replace
your surge protector with a new unit.
Note
Equipment connected to surge protectors
with Power Blocker™ protection will be
additionally covered in the event of equip-
ment damaged by a lightning strike. No surge
protector will entirely protect against a direct
lightning strike. The surge protector itself is
expected to be damaged in performing its duty
and you must purchase a new one to replace
the damaged unit.
