Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack 11-Outlet Home Theater/Satellite Surge Protector.
This surge protector guards your valuable A/V equipment from damage caused by sudden
electrical spikes and surges. Your surge protector also absorbs electrical spikes and power
surges and ensures steady performance of connected devices by filtering electromagnetic
and radio frequency interference.

Your surge protector complies with Part 68
of FCC Rules. You must, upon request,
provide the FCC registration number and the
REN to your telephone company.
You must not connect your surge protector
to:
• coin-operated systems
• party-line systems
• most electronic key telephone systems
We have designed your surge protector to
conform to federal regulations, and you can
connect it to most telephone lines. However,
each surge protector that you connect to the
telephone line draws power from the
telephone line. We refer to this power draw
as the device's ringer equivalence number,
or REN.
If you use more than one phone or other
device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If
the total is more than five (three in rural
areas), your telephones might not ring. If
