Important safety instructions
Avoid using a telephone (other than cordless) during an
electrical storm. There is a remote risk of electric shock
from lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity
of the leak. Under certain circumstances, a spark may be
created when the adapter is plugged into the power outlet,
or when the handset or pendant is replaced in its cradle.
This is a common event associated with the closing of
any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone
into a power outlet, and should not put a charged handset
or pendant into its cradle, if the phone is located in an
environment containing concentrations of flammable
or flame-supporting gases, unless there is adequate
ventilation. A spark in such an environment could create a
fire or explosion. Such environments might include: medical
use of oxygen without adequate ventilation; industrial
gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of
natural gas; etc.
Only put the handset of your telephone next to your ear
when it is in normal talk mode.
The power adapters are intended to be correctly oriented
in a vertical or floor mount position. The prongs are not
designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a
ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.
