IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always follow these basic safety precautions when using your
telephone equipment. These precautions reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, and injury to you and damage to the equipment.
■
Read and understand all instructions.
■
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on or packed with
the telephone.
■
Do not use the telephone near water, as in a wet basement.
The telephone can be hazardous if immersed in water. To
avoid the possibility of electrical shock, do not use it when you
are wet. If you accidentally drop it into water, do not retrieve it
until you have first unplugged the line cord from the modular
wall jack. Do not plug the telephone back in until it has dried
thoroughly.
■
Do not use the telephone near a gas leak. If you suspect a
gas leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone away from
the area in question. The telephone’s electrical contacts could
generate a tiny spark. While unlikely, it is possible that the
spark could ignite heavy concentrations of gas.
■
Do not use the telephone (other than a cordless-type
telephone) during electrical storms in your immediate area.
There is a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
