Chamberlain CLSS1 Quick Start Manual

OWNER'S INSTRUCTIONS:
The Garage Door Opener Surge Protector is designed to protect garage
door openers against damage from lightning and power surges. The Surge
Protector will stop radiated surge currents from coming through wall
control and safety sensor wires, as well as surge currents from coming
through AC power line according to the rating chart shown below.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from electrocution:
• Unplug Garage Door Opener from AC outlet and be sure power is disconnected BEFORE installing the Surge Protector.
• Connect terminals ONLY to 24 VOLT low voltage wires.
• The Surge Protector is ONLY for indoor Use.
• DO NOT perform installation during a lightning storm (visible lightning)
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or
other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
To protect the door opener low voltage control wires from lightning damage, control wires will be rerouted from the door opener to the surge protector,
continuing the connection to the door opener. This protects the opener's control wiring.

MODEL CLSS1 AND CLSS1-P
GARAGE DOOR OPENER
SURGE PROTECTOR
Plug the Surge Protector into grounded (3-wire) 120V AC outlet within four
(4) feet of the garage door opener. Plugging Surge Protector into a GFCI
(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is acceptable, but not recommended as
power surges may cause the GFCI to trip and you will need to reset the
outlet in order to operate the garage door opener.
If not illuminated, the wires for the safety
sensors may be crossed at the Surge Protector.
Follow these steps:
1. Unplug Surge Protector and garage door
opener from AC outlet.
2. Verify that the safety sensor wires are
connected to the gray and white terminals
on the Surge Protector. If not, re-wire Surge
Protector following above instructions.
3. If connected to the gray and white terminals
and LED's are still not illuminated, disconnect
the twisted wires from both gray and white
terminals and switch positions. Ensure they
are making a good connection within the
terminals of the Surge Protector.
4. Reconnect AC power to both Surge Protector
and garage door opener.
LED Indicator: The indicator light should be
illuminated when the surge protector is plugged
into AC power and is protecting your garage
door opener system. If the indicator light goes
out, the surge protector has sacrifi ced (depleted)
itself to protect the garage door opener system
and should be replaced immediately.
