LIGHTNING
Your Modem Mate has built-in protection circuits to re-
duce the risk of damage from surges in phone and power
line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed
FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the phone
line or power lines can damage your Modem Mate.
Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you
live in an area that has frequent electrical storms, we
suggest that you unplug your Modem Mate during storms
to reduce the possibility of damage.
