Operating Instructions
- Power Indicator: The illuminated ON/OFF reset switch serves as a power indicator. When lit, the surge protector is active and providing power to connected devices.
- Circuit Breaker: The integrated 15A circuit breaker protects against overloads. If the total current draw of connected devices exceeds 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip, and the switch will turn off.
- Resetting the Circuit Breaker: If the circuit breaker trips, disconnect some devices to reduce the load. Then, press the ON/OFF reset switch to reset the breaker and restore power.

- Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cord and the unit for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires or cracks in the casing. If damage is found, discontinue use and replace the unit.
- Overload Prevention: Avoid overloading the surge protector by not exceeding its 15A capacity. Distribute devices across multiple outlets if necessary.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your CyberPower CSB404MP6, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No power to connected devices. | Surge protector is not plugged in or turned on. | Ensure the surge protector is securely plugged into a wall outlet and the ON/OFF switch is in the 'ON' position. |
| ON/OFF switch is off and will not reset. | Circuit breaker has tripped due to an overload. | Unplug some devices to reduce the load. Wait a few moments, then press the ON/OFF switch to reset. If it trips again, the load is still too high or there is a fault. |
| Devices are plugged in, but not receiving power. | Faulty device or outlet on the surge protector. | Test the device in another outlet or test another device in the surge protector's outlet. If the problem persists, the surge protector may need replacement. |
