Thank you for purchasing the PureAV Power Console PF40. The Power
Console is designed to clean, protect, and efficiently distribute power to
your valuable home theater system. The PureAV Power Console ensures
that every movie you watch and every album you hear is as clean and
clear as possible.
The Power Console is packed with innovative features to provide you with
the best home theater experience. Ordinary household AC power that is
delivered to your home is polluted with noise from many sources within
your home, including digital components and household appliances. The
Power Consoles advanced Phase 4 PureFilter Circuitry is optimized to
remove electrical noise and provide clean and clear power to all of your
valuable digital, audio, video, and high-current equipment. The multiphase
PureFilter Circuitry also provides true isolation between digital, audio,
video, and high-current components. This isolation prevents noise created
by components that are already connected to the Power Console from
contaminating other connected equipment. In addition, the Power Console
contains Advanced Overvoltage Protection, which automatically
disconnects power from your equipment when the input voltage reaches a
dangerous level, and restores power automatically when the voltage
returns to a safe level.
We also realize that the aesthetics of your system are very important. For
this reason we enlisted some of the top industrial designers in the country
to design the housing for the PureAV Power Console. The minimalist
styling of the Power Console combines function with a simplistic yet
elegant design and is a great complement to any system. The integrated
multifunction LCD combines all essential controls with a versatile voltage
and current monitor.
As you may know, your AC power source is not the only threat to the
safety of your equipment. This is why the PureAV Power Console has three
sets of coaxial connections to protect your coaxial-cable lines. The Power
Console also includes telephone jacks to protect Pay-Per-View lines and
broadband Ethernet jacks to protect data lines that stream digital content
to your home theater system.
Providing the ultimate home theater experience is the driving force behind
the PureAV brand, providing the clearest picture and cleanest sound from
your components to you. Thank you again for purchasing the PureAV
Power Console PF40.
Clear Picture Clean Sound. PureAV.

Safety Precautions
Warning Grounding and Polarization
This product must be plugged directly into a grounded AC power outlet
(3-prong). Do not use a 3-to-2-prong adapter to defeat the grounding pin. Do
not plug or daisy-chain this product into other electrical products such as
surge protectors, power strips, or UPSes. Do not plug this product into an
extension cord. Failure to plug this product directly into a grounded outlet
may result in personal injury or damage to your equipment. Call a licensed
electrician if you are unsure if your AC outlets are properly grounded.
Warning Rooftop Antennas and Satellite Dishes
If you use rooftop antennas, satellite dishes, or any other rooftop hardware
that connects to your PureAV Power Console, make sure that all the wires
leading from these components are properly grounded. This will protect
against voltage surges from lightning strikes or static charges.
Warning Lightning Storm Protection
Although your PureAV Power Console is built to withstand large power
surges, we cannot guarantee that it will protect all of your equipment in the
event of a large lightning storm. In the event of a lightning storm, it is best
to unplug your Power Console from the wall. Once you have done this,
there is no need to unplug any of the equipment that is connected to the
Power Console.
Warning Water and other Liquids: Shock Hazard
Do not use this product with aquariums or other water-related products.
Use indoors and in dry locations only. Do not operate the Power Console
if any liquid is spilled on or in the unit. Failure to follow these guidelines
could result in serious bodily injury or death.
Warning Cleaning
Always unplug the Power Console before cleaning. It is only necessary to
clean the Power Console with a clean, dry cloth or duster. Do not use any
cleaning solutions, sprays, or water.
Warning No User-Serviceable Parts Inside
If for any reason your Power Console is malfunctioning, do not attempt
to repair or dismantle the unit in any way. Unplug the unit and consult this
User Manual for warranty and service contact information.
Warning Power Cord Safety
Do not route the Power Consoles AC power cord near heat sources.
This could damage the power cord and cause it to malfunction, creating
a shock hazard.
Do not route the Power Consoles AC power cord in heavy foot-traffic areas
where it could create a trip hazard (hallways, doorways, across room).
If the power cord is frayed, ripped, cut, or damaged in any way, please
discontinue use immediately and refer to the warranty section of this
Manual for instructions.
