Safety

This ISDN PC Card is designed only for use in Personal Computers that have installation instructions describing user installation of PC Car ds in PCMCI A slots.

Electrical current from power and ISDN communication cables is hazardous. To avoid shock hazards, connect and disconnect cables as shown below when installing, moving, or opening the covers of this pr oduct or attached devices. The power cord must be used with a properly grounded outlet.

To avoid shock hazards, do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform installation, maintenance, or reconfiguration of this product during an electrical storm.

To avoid shock hazards:

• The power cord must be connected to a properly wired and grounded receptacle.

• Any equipment to which this product is to be attached must also be connected to properly wired receptacles.

This is a high-performance ISDN adapter. Prolonged high-speed data transfers will result in the ISDN adapter becoming noti ceably warm. If you need to remove the ISDN adapter immediately after prolonged operation and you are uncomfortable with handling the ISDN adapter while it is warm, eject the ISDN adapter from the PCMCIA slot and let it cool for about 15 seconds before handling it.
