be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons:
1. Read and understand all instructions.

3. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a dry cloth for
cleaning without liquid or aerosol cleaners.
4. Do not use this product near water; for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl,
kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.
5. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The telephone may
fall, causing serious damage to the unit.
6. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for
ventilation. To protect the product from overheating, these openings must not be
blocked or covered. 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 unless
proper ventilation is 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 damaged by persons walking on it.
9. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in the risk of
fire or electrical shock.

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.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product. Take it to
qualified service personnel 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.
12. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service
personnel under the following conditions:
