(c) or resulting from modification of the surge protector. After any repair or modification of the surge protector by a facility not authorized by Philips, any problems that arise will not be remedied under this warranty.

This warranty does not cover (a) damages caused by acts of God, including flood, erosion, or earthquake, but excluding lightning on products with Power Blocker™ technology; (b) damages caused by a sustained low voltage situation, or a low voltage disturbance, including brownouts, sags, or power outages; (c) damages caused by war, vandalism, theft, normal use wear-and-tear, depletion, obsolescence, abnormal care or uses, or abuse; (d) damage due to non-authorized program or system equipment modification or alteration; or (e) damage to equipment that was not directly connected to the surge protector at the time of the Occurrence.

This warranty is limited to losses that are not covered by a warranty from the manufacturer of the connected equipment, or by the consumer's homeowners insurance or renter's insurance policy. Consumer agrees to first seek coverage under any such warranty or policy, and not seek duplicate coverage from Philips. Consumer agrees to provide insurance information to Philips, at its request; and after a claims settlement, if applicable, Philips reserves the right to be subrogated under any existing warranty from the manufacturer of the connected equipment or under any existing insurance policies the claimant may have. This warranty is limited to surge protectors which indicate on the packaging an accompanying connected equipment warranty. After any repair or modification of the surge protector by a facility not authorized by Philips, any problems that arise will not be remedied under this warranty.

(Such devices are normally added during telephone line installation.) If you fail to connect the telephone line protection properly, your connected equipment will not be covered by the Connected Equipment Warranty. To claim damage as a result of coaxial line transients, equipment must be properly connected to a Philips surge protector which offers coaxial line protection (see the user manual for installation instructions).

Philips will determine, at its sole discretion, whether consumer should send the damaged equipment and the surge protector to Philips, or to an independent repair facility.

Philips also reserves the right to examine the site where the damage occurred. If Philips determines that the Connected Equipment Limited Warranty covers the damaged equipment, and that the equipment was damaged as a result of the surge protector which is covered under the Surge Protector Limited Warranty, Philips will either (a) authorize repair of the connected equipment, at a cost up to the maximum amount set forth on the packaging of the surge protector involved; (b) provide the consumer with an equivalent equipment replacement; or (c) reimburse the consumer for the present fair market value of the damaged connected equipment.
