INSTRUCTION MANUAL

This manual describes necessary points of caution when
you use this product, including installation, connection and
basic maintenance procedures.

LIMITATION APPLICABLE TO M-RESTER

The M-RESTER will protect electronics equipment from 
damage caused by lightning by absorbing most of the 
surge voltages.
However, M-RESTER may not be effective against cer-
tain extremely high voltages caused by a direct or almost 
direct hit by lightning.
M-RESTER must be installed according to this installa-
tion / instruction manual.
