LIMITED ONE-YEAR WARRANTY AND CONNECTED EQUIPMENT GUARANTEE
LIMITED WARRANTY — This surge protector product is warranted by RadioShack to the original purchaser against manufacturing
defects in material and workmanship under normal use for one (1) year from the date of purchase (the “Warranty Period”) from
RadioShack company owned stores and authorized RadioShack franchisees and dealers. In the event of a covered product defect
during the Warranty Period, RadioShack will, at its option, unless otherwise provided by law: (a) correct the defect by surge protector
repair without charge for parts and labor; (b) replace the surge protector with one of the same or similar design; or (c) refund the pur-
chase price of the surge protector.
CONNECTED EQUIPMENT GUARANTEE — RadioShack warrants to the original purchaser of the surge protector that if any elec-
tronic equipment (the “Connected Equipment”), which is properly installed and connected (as defined below) to the surge protector
and is damaged during the Warranty Period by a transient voltage surge/spike from the AC power line, telephone line or coaxial line
that enters the Connected Equipment through the surge protector, RadioShack will reimburse to the original purchaser of the surge
protector the lower of the: (a) Connected Equipment repair charges; (b) purchase price of equipment comparable (as determined by
RadioShack) to the Connected Equipment; or (c) original purchase price of the Connected Equipment, up to a maximum of five thou-
sand U.S. dollars ($5,000.00) (the “Equipment Limit”). The Connected Equipment Guarantee does not cover data loss or any other
damages excluded in the all capitalized paragraph below. In order to qualify for Connected Equipment reimbursement, the surge pro-
tector must be returned to RadioShack and inspection of the surge protector must show its protection capacity was exhausted by a
surge. “Properly installed and connected” means the surge protector must be plugged directly into a properly wired and grounded AC
outlet; no extension cords, adapters, other ground wires or electrical connections may be used to connect the surge protector to AC
power and no more than one piece of Connected Equipment may be connected to any one surge protector outlet. The wiring in the
building must comply with all applicable codes (NEC, CSA, etc.), and all wires (power, telephone and coaxial) leading into the Con-
nected Equipment must pass through the surge protector. To claim damage to Connected Equipment as a result of telephone line
transients, the surge protector must provide telephone line protection, and your telephone service equipment must include a properly
installed and operating “primary protection” device at the service entrance. Primary protection devices are normally available from the
telephone company and added during telephone line installation. To claim damage to Connected Equipment as a result of coaxial line
transients, the surge protector must provide coaxial line protection.
This Limited Warranty and Connected Equipment Guarantee applies only to the original purchaser of the surge protector.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, RADIOSHACK MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES,
INCLUDING THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO
THE DURATION OF THE WRITTEN LIMITED WARRANTIES CONTAINED HEREIN. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN,
RADIOSHACK SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY TO CUSTOMER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY WITH
RESPECT TO ANY LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BY USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE
PRODUCT OR ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR CONNECTED EQUIPMENT GUARANTEE,
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF TIME, DATA, PROP-
ERTY, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF
RADIOSHACK HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
To make a claim for surge-induced damage to Connected Equipment, you must:
1. Call RadioShack at 1-888-353-1560 for a return authorization number during the Warranty Period. Under no circumstances will a
claim for surge-induced damage to Connected Equipment be accepted without a return authorization number;
2. Have any surge-induced, damaged Connected Equipment repaired (or get an estimate for repair) by a service center authorized by
the manufacturer of the Connected Equipment unless the service center determines that the Connected Equipment is not repair-
able or that the cost of repair will be more than the purchase price of comparable replacement equipment. If the Connected Equip-
ment is not to be repaired, get a written quotation for the purchase price of comparable replacement equipment. In no event will
RadioShack reimburse more than the Equipment Limit. The repair bill or estimate from the authorized service center must indicate
that the damage to the Connected Equipment was surge-induced; and
3. Ship the original surge protector, postage prepaid to: RadioShack, 7020 Koll Center Pkwy, Suite 136, Pleasanton, California,
94588. Include: (a) your name, address and daytime telephone number; (b) the original or a photocopy of the sales receipt for the
surge protector; (c) a brief description of any problem with the surge protector; (d) a brief description of how the damage to the Con-
nected Equipment occurred; (e) the original authorized service center repair bill or estimate documenting that the damage to the
Connected Equipment was surge-induced; and (f) if replacement equipment is to be purchased, the original or a photocopy of the
quotation for comparable replacement equipment and the authorized service center repair estimate must contain a statement that
the Connected Equipment is not repairable or that the cost of repair will be more than the purchase price of comparable replace-
ment equipment.
If RadioShack determines that damage to Connected Equipment is covered, RadioShack will reimburse, up to the Equipment Limit
amount defined above, to the original purchaser of the surge protector the lower of the: (a) repair charges; (b) purchase price of com-
parable replacement equipment; or (c) the original purchase price of the Connected Equipment. In addition, in the event of a covered
product defect during the Warranty Period, RadioShack will, at its option, unless otherwise provided by law: (a) correct the defect by
surge protector repair without charge for parts and labor; (b) replace the surge protector with one of the same or similar design; or (c)
refund the purchase price of the surge protector.
To make a warranty claim for a defect in the surge protector without a claim for surge-induced damage to Connected Equipment, you
must, during the Warranty Period, take the surge protector and the RadioShack sales receipt as proof of purchase date to any
RadioShack store.
All replaced parts, products, and Connected Equipment and products and Connected Equipment on which a refund is made, become
the property of RadioShack. New or reconditioned parts and products may be used in the performance of warranty service. Repaired
or replaced parts in surge protectors and replacement surge protectors are warranted for the remainder of the Warranty Period. You
will be charged for repair or replacement of the product made after the expiration of the Warranty Period.
This Limited Warranty and Connected Equipment Guarantee does not cover: (a) damage or failure caused by or attributable to acts of
God, abuse, accident, misuse, improper or abnormal usage, failure to follow instructions, improper installation or maintenance, alter-
ation, lightning; (b) any repairs other than: (i) surge protector repairs provided by a RadioShack Authorized Service Facility; and (ii)
reimbursement of the cost of initial repairs to Connected Equipment performed by a service center authorized by the manufacturer of
the Connected Equipment; (c) consumables such as fuses or batteries; (d) cosmetic damage; (e) transportation, shipping or insur-
ance costs; or (f) costs of product or Connected Equipment removal, installation, set-up service adjustment or reinstallation.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
