Safety instructions when using telephone equipment
Always follow basic safety precautions when using telephone equipment.
Following these safety precautions reduces the risk of fire, electric shock,
and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
2. Unplug the telephone from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use
liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
3. Do not use the telephone near water, for example, near a bath tub,
wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a
swimming pool.
4. Do not place the telephone on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The
product may fall, causing serious damage to the product.
5. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom of the
telephone are for ventilation. These ventilation slots protect the
telephone from overheating. Never block or cover these openings.
6. Never block the openings on a telephone by placing the product on a
bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Never place the product near
or over a radiator or heat register. Do not place the product in a built-in
installation, unless there is correct ventilation.
7. Only operate the product from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply, check
with your distributor.
8. Some equipment has a three-wire grounding plug. This type of plug
has a third grounding pin. As a safety feature, the plug only fits into an
isolated ground outlet. If you cannot insert the plug completely into the
outlet, contact your electrician to replace the outlet. Do not defeat the
purpose of the grounding-type plug.
Some equipment has a polarized line plug. This type of plug has one
blade wider than the other. As a safety feature, this plug fits into the
power outlet one way only. If you cannot insert the plug completely into
the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact
