When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury, including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
3. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
4. Do not use this product near water (for example, near a bath tub, kitchen sink,
or swimming pool).
5. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may
fall, causing serious damage to the product.
6. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation.
To protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked by placing
the product on the bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should
never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This product should
not be placed in a built-in installation where proper ventilation is not provided.
7. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on
the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your dealer or local power company.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product
where the cord will be abused by persons walking on it.
9. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots as they
may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk
of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
10. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product. Opening
or removing cabinet parts other than specified access doors may expose you
to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembling can cause electric
shock when the appliance is subsequently used.
11. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in the risk of
fire or electric shock.

B. If liquid has been spilled into the product.
C. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions, because improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work to restore the product to
normal operation.
E. If the product has been dropped and the cabinet has been damaged.
F. If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
13. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm.
