install this product where the cord may be walked on.

11. Never push objects of any kind into this product through the
slots in the base station or handset because they may touch
dangerous voltage points or create a short circuit. Never

12. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this
product, but take it to an authorized service facility. Opening
or removing parts of the base station or handset other than

specied access doors may expose you to dangerous

voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembling can cause
electric shock when the product is subsequently used.

13. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords.

14. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing
to an authorized service facility under the following
conditions:

A. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or
frayed.

B. If liquid has been spilled onto the product.

C. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

16. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity
of the leak. Under certain circumstances, a spark may
be created when the adapter is plugged into the power
outlet, or when the handset is replaced in its cradle. This
is a common event associated with the closing of any
electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone into
a power outlet, and should not put a charged handset
into the cradle, if the phone is located in an environment

containing concentrations of ammable or ame-supporting

gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark in

such an environment could create a re or explosion. Such
environments might include: medical use of oxygen without

adequate ventilation; industrial gases (cleaning solvents;
gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc.

17. Only put the handset of your telephone next to your ear
when it is in normal talk mode.

in a vertical or oor mount position. The prongs are not

designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a

ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

19. Use only the power cord indicated in this manual.

20. For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet shall be installed
near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

21. In wall mounting position, make sure to mount the telephone
base on the wall by aligning the eyelets with the mounting
studs of the wall plate. Then slide the telephone base down
on both mounting studs until it locks into place. Refer to the
full installation instructions in the User Guide.

22. CAUTION: Keep small metallic objects such as pins and
staples away from the handset receiver.
