Safety precautions
For your safety
The OpenStage IP telephone complies with the European standard EN 60
950, which deals with the safety of information technology appliances in-
cluding electronic office equipment. This device has been designed with
safety in mind, thus protecting both individuals and objects.
There is always a danger of small objects being swallowed by young chil-
dren.
Please ensure that such items are not accessible to children.
• Use only the enclosed power supply unit together with the special LAN
cable.
• Never open the power supply enclosure.
Caring for your telephone
• The telephone must not be used in bathrooms, etc. as it is not splash
proof.
• Before connecting or disconnecting the LAN cable, pull the power plug
out of the power outlet first.
• Never allow the telephone to come into contact with staining or ag-
gressive liquids such as coffee, tea, juice, or soft drinks.
Location of the telephone
• The telephone should be operated in a controlled environment with an
ambient temperature between 5 C and 40 C.
• To ensure good speakerphone quality, the area in front of the micro-
phone (front right) should be kept clear. The optimum speakerphone
distance is 50 cm.
• Do not install the telephone in a room where large quantities of dust
accumulate; this can considerably reduce the service life of the tele-
phone.
• Do not expose the telephone to direct sunlight or any other source of
heat, as this is liable to damage the electronic components and the
plastic casing.
• Do not operate the telephone in damp environments such as bath-
rooms.
