7. Never push objects of any kind
through slots in the phone. You
could 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 telephone.
8. Unplug this telephone from the wall
outlet and refer to a qualified service
representative in any of the follow-
ing situations:
• If liquid has been spilled into the
telephone.
• If the telephone has been ex-
posed to rain or water.
• If the telephone does not operate
normally by following the operat-
ing instructions.
• If the telephone has been
dropped or the case has been
damaged.
• If the telephone exhibits a distinct
change in performance.
9. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instruc-
tions. Improper adjustment of other
controls may result in damage and
will often require extensive work by
a qualified technician to restore the
telephone to normal operation.
10. Avoid using a telephone (other than
a cordless type) during an electrical
storm. There may be a remote risk
of electric shock from lightning.
11. Do not use the telephone to report a
gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
12. Never install telephone wiring during
a lightning storm.

unless the jack is specifically de-
signed for wet locations.
14. Never touch uninsulated telephone
wires or terminals unless the tele-

at the network interface.
15. Use caution when installing or modi-
fying telephone lines. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, do not disas-
semble this product, but take it to a
qualified serviceman when service
or repair work is required. Opening
or removing covers may expose you
to dangerous voltages or other risks.
Incorrect reassembly can cause
electric shock when the appliance is
subsequently used.
