A
bout The Stratitec MultiStage™ Surge Protection Technology
This Stratitec surge suppressor meets the UL 1449 Rev 2 specification. The UL specification ensures this surge suppressor is safe to use and is effective as a surge
suppressor.
Note:
Surge suppressors made before Feb 1998 generally do not meet the UL 1449 Rev 2 specification and can be a fire hazard. We strongly
recommend you discard any old surge suppressors and replace them with new units.
Accommodates three AC
blocks without blocking any
other outlets.

2. Plug in AC Cords and Power Blocks
Note:
In the event of a major surge on the telephone line, the tele-
phone protection circuitry will disconnect your equipment. The pro-
tection circuitry cannot be reset. If you find that your telephone
equipment does not work when plugged into the “OUT” port, try
plugging your telephone equipment directly into the wall. If your
equipment then works, then the surge suppressor may have saved
it from destruction.

3. Connect the Telephone Protection with Patent-pending
SurgeAbsorb™ Technology
Connect the “OUT” port to your
modem, telephone, fax machine,
answering machine, or any other
telephone device you want to protect.
IMPORTANT!
It is very important that
you plug the phone cables in as shown.
If you do not, the telephone protection
will be reduced and the Connected
Equipment Warranty will be void.
Connect the “IN” port to the wall telephone
jack.

1. Plug the S3002 into an AC Outlet
The S3002 package includes:
7-Outlet MultiStage
™
S3002
6 Ft. Telephone Cord
If you are missing any items, DO NOT RETURN PRODUCT TO
STORE. Instead, please call our support center at 888.336.4418
The power cord can plug directly into an AC
outlet.
The power cord can also be routed through the bottom of the surge
suppressor.
Routing the cable through the bottom shortens the cord for a neat
appearance and allows easier access to the master power switch.
Flip the power switch to the “RESET” position. The red “Protected” light should
turn on.
Red “Protected” light - If this light is off but the devices
plugged into the surge suppressor are working, the AC
outlet the surge suppressor power cord is plugged into
may not be grounded. We highly recommend the use of
a grounded AC outlet.
If you are using a grounded AC outlet, and the red “Protected” light is off,
shut down, disconnect power to the surge suppressor, and contact the
Stratitec support center at 888.336.4418.
Green “Grounded” light - When this light is on, it indicates that the surge
suppressor is plugged in to a properly-grounded outlet. If this light does not turn
on, you must move to a grounded outlet or have an electrician wire a proper
ground to your outlet. It is safe to use the surge suppressor with the “grounded”
light off, but the surge protection is greatly reduced and the Connected Equip-
ment Warrantly is void.
IMPORTANT!
This surge suppressor must be plugged into a
properly-grounded 3-prong AC outlet. If you plug into a non-
grounded outlet or if you use a 2-prong to 3-prong adapter, the
surge protection will be greatly reduced and the Connected
Equipment Warranty will be void.
Note:
The power switch contains an integrated circuit breaker. If the
surge unit becomes overloaded, the power switch will automatically
turn off. If this happens, unplug items from the surge suppressor, flip
the power switch to “Off” and then back to “Reset.”
The Stratitec S3002 incorporates two-stage technology to offer solid surge protection:
Stratitec IsolationFailsafe™ protects you and your equipment. If a massive surge occurs, the SurgeAbsorb™
circuitry signals the IsolationFailsafe™ circuitry to automatically disconnect power and shut off your equipment.
This provides ultimate power protection.
IsolationFailsafe™
Stratitec SurgeAbsorb™ diffuses and redirects surge energy, stopping it from reaching your equipment. Although
we use a powerful array of high quality surge absorbers, the protection decreases as surges are absorbed and your
equipment is protected.

DSL Users:
Connect the “out“ jack
of the surge suppressor to the DSL
filter’s “Line” or “In” connector. Con-
nect your DSL modem and phones
to the DSL filter.
For the highest level of continued protection, we suggest that you move surge suppressors that have been in use
for
three or more years
to protect less valuable equipment.
