Important Safety Instructions
Read and understand the Installation Guide & User Manual. When using your telephone
equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock and injury to person, including the following.
WARNING: The CSC50 Phone is capable of amplifying sounds to a loud volume. It is
important to instruct all potential users of its proper operation. It is advised to adjust the
volume control to the minimum level (Low) when not in use and alert other users that
hearing damage can potentially result from misuse.
WARNING: To avoid the possibility of electrical shock, do not use this product near water
(For example, near a bathtub, wash basin, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement
or near a swimming pool) while in the bathtub or shower or when you are wet. If the phone
becomes submerged in water, do not attempt to retrieve it until after you have unplugged
the AC adapter from the electrical outlet and the line cord from the modular wall jack. Do
not plug the phone back in until it has dried completely.
WARNING: Avoid using the telephone during electrical storms. There may be a remote
risk of electric shock from lightning. If the electrical storm is present in your immediate
area, possibility of electrical shock exists.
WARNING: Do not use the phone if you suspect a gas leak in the area. The phone’s
electrical contacts could create a spark, which could ignite any heavy concentration of
leaking gas.
WARNING: Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners on the telephone. Use a damp
cloth for cleaning.
WARNING: No telephone should ever be placed near an open radiator or heating register.
WARNING: Occasionally a power surge can occur on electrical lines without warning. With
any electrical device that you plug into an outlet, it is suggested you use a surge protector.
A surge protector will prevent power surges from damaging your telephone. Surge protectors are simple devices available at your local hardware store.
