Symptom
Possible Cause
Remedy
The PowerCenter
™
is not
receiving power.
The PowerCenter is not turned On.
Too many devices are connected, causing an overload,
tripping the Circuit Breaker.
• Turn the PowerCenter switch on.
• Make sure the PowerCenter’s AC power plug is plugged into a properly grounded
120 volts (nominal) wall outlet.
• In some households, a wall switch may need to be thrown to make the wall plug
active. Try turning on the light switches located near the wall unit.
• Press the PowerCenter main power switch to “OFF” and then again to “ON” to reset.
Component is not receiving power.
The component is plugged into a GreenPower switched outlet
and the PowerCenter has not been turned On.
The PowerCenter is plugged into a Switched outlet, but power on
the component is not On. In some instances, a component plugged
into a switched outlet won’t receive power when the PowerCenter
is turned On unless the component power is also switched On.
The component is plugged into a GreenPower switched outlet and the
component connected to the GreenPower Control Outlet has not been
turned On.
• Turn the PowerCenter On.
• Turn On the component plugged into the Switched outlet
Speakers emit a humming
or buzzing noise.
The PowerCenter is sharing AC power with equipment
that is not properly grounded.
• Connect your PowerCenter to a dedicated outlet.
• Try unplugging different components from the PowerCenter one
at a time to see if the noise stops.
• Make sure all components are plugged into PowerCenter.
Alarm beeps continuously
The PowerCenter protection circuitry has sacrificed itself to protect
connected equipment from a catastrophic surge.
The PowerCenter must be replaced. See the Warranty Information
section for important details.
“Ground OK” Diagnostic Indicator Light
does not come on
Make sure PowerCenter is plugged into grounded outlet
Contact a qualified electrician to check outlet(s) for proper grounding.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read and observe the following safety points at all times.
WARNING – Power Sources
Do not plug this PowerCenter
™
into a power outlet that differs from
the source indicated for safe use on the PowerCenter. If you don’t know
the type of electrical power that is supplied to your home, consult your
local power company or a qualified electrician.
WARNING – Grounding and Polarization
A.
Do not force your PowerCenter plug into an outlet that is not designed
to accept a three-wire grounded-type AC plug (a three-prong plug).
This plug is designed to be inserted into a grounded-type outlet only.
If this plug doesn’t fit directly inside your outlet, do not attempt to force
it into the outlet. Never attempt to dismantle the plug in any way
(or to alter the power cord). Do not attempt to defeat the grounding
feature by using a 3-to-2 prong adapter. If you have questions about
grounding, consult your local power company or a qualified electrician.
B.
If you use rooftop devices such as satellite dishes, antennas, or any
other component with wire that connects to your PowerCenter,
be sure the wire(s) is properly grounded. This protects against
voltage surges and static charges.
C.
Do not place any antenna near overhead power lines or any other
power circuit. Do not touch any power line or power circuit.
Doing so may cause severe physical injury or possibly death.
WARNING – Liquid: Avoiding Electrical Shocks
A.
Do not operate your Monster PowerCenter
®
if liquid of any kind
is spilled onto or inside the unit.
B.
Do not operate your Monster PowerCenter near rain or water
that’s spilled or contained (e.g., bathtub, kitchen sink).
WARNING – Power Cord Safety
A.
When routing your PowerCenter’s AC power cord, do not place
it near heavy foot traffic areas (e.g., hallways, doorways, and floors).
Do not create a trip hazard with the power cord.
B.
If your power cord’s protective jacket begins to rip or fray, exposing
the internal wiring, shielding, etc., disconnect it from the AC power
source and discontinue use of the Monster PowerCenter immediately.
See the Warranty Information section of this owner’s manual
for important details.
WARNING – Storm Precautions
In the event of a lightning storm, it’s always a good idea to disconnect your
Monster PowerCenter from the power outlet; there is no need to disconnect
your separate AV components. Make sure that ALL of your AV components
and PC products are protected with Monster Power.
WARNING – No User Serviceable Parts Inside
If, for any reason, your PowerCenter is not operating properly,
do not remove any part of the unit (cover, etc.) for repair. Unplug
the unit and consult the Warranty Information section of this owner’s
manual for important details.
CAUTION – Exposure To Heat
Do not expose your PowerCenter to direct sunlight or place it near wall
heaters, space heaters, or any enclosed space prone to temperature increase.
CAUTION – Proper Cleaning
In general, the only cleaning necessary for your Monster PowerCenter
is a light dusting. Unplug your component from the wall outlet before
cleaning it. Do not use any type of liquid or aerosol cleaners.

Damage
Attach a Monster Power identification label to each
component’s power cord before you plug it into the
appropriate color-coded PowerCenter outlet.
Plug each component’s power cord (HDTV, AV receiver,
Cable/Satellite box, etc.) into the PowerCenter’s
corresponding outlet.
NOTE:
The outlets on your PowerCenter are labeled for your convenience.
It will not harm your equipment to plug into an outlet that’s labeled differently.
CONNECTING TO GREENPOWER OUTLETS
1.
Connect your AV Receiver or HDTV
to the “GREENPOWER CONTROL” outlet.
2.
Connect devices such as Plasma TV,
Subwoofer, and DVD/Blu-ray Disc™
Player to “GREENPOWER CONTROLLED”
switched outlets so they won’t
use power when the component
connected to the “GREENPOWER
CONTROL” outlet is powered off or in sleep mode.
NOTE:
If you don’t want any outlets to automatically switch off, Monster GreenPower can be disabled
by the switch located on the end of the PowerCenter.
CAUTION:
Important data and settings store on hard drives (recorded TV shows, game saves, etc.) may be
corrupted or deleted if power is turned off while the hard drive is being read from or written to.
If you hook up a hard drive-based device such as a TiVo®, DVR or video game console to a “GREENPOWER
CONTROLLED,” switched outlet, make sure the device is NOT being read from or written to when you turn off
the equipment connected to the “GREENPOWER CONTROL” outlet.
To ensure against the possibility of data loss or corruption, you should connect hard drive-based devices
to unswitched outlets or disable GreenPower using the switch located on the end of the PowerCenter.
Monster assumes no responsibility for data loss, corruption or damage to hard drive-based devices
connected to PowerCenters with GreenPower automatic outlet switching.
COAXIAL CONNECTIONS HOOK-UP
Coaxial Connections provide surge
protection against damaging voltage
surges and spikes on the incoming
cable TV and satellite lines.
PHONE CONNECTIONS HOOK-UP
Phone connections provide surge protection against damaging voltage surges
and spikes coming from the phone line. This PowerCenter also incorporates
a splitter for convenience. Protect Phone Line Connections as follows:
NETWORK CONNECTION HOOK-UP
Network (Ethernet RJ45) connections provide surge protection against damaging voltage
surges and spikes coming from the Ethernet line or local area network (LAN).
Protect Network Connections as Follows:
To ensure complete power surge protection, all lines that connect to your AV components
need to be connected to surge protected connections on the PowerCenter.
WALL-MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The PowerCenter comes with keyholes for convenient wall-mounting.
1.
Select the best location to mount the PowerCenter and mark the position
for the four mounting screws (screws not supplied).
2.
Drive pan-head screws with spacer eyelets into the wall (use drywall anchors
for hollow walls) at the locations you
marked, leaving the eyelet exposed.
3.
Position the key-holes on the back
of the unit over the screw/eyelets
and slide the PowerCenter down
until it locks into position.
