Important Safety Information
Statements in this manual preceded by the following words are of special significance.
WARNING!
Means there is the possibility of personal injury to yourself or others.
CAUTION!
Means there is the possibility of damage to the equipment.
Other information of particular importance has been placed in italic type like this.
WARNING!
The TELETALKER is capable of amplifying sounds to a very loud volume. To prevent
misuse of the phone by someone who is unfamiliar with its operation and capabilities, DO
NOT remove the warning labels. Instruct all potential users in its proper operation. Do
not let children play with the TELETALKER. When the AMPLIFY function is not activated, the TELETALKER functions as a normal telephone.
WARNING!
This telephone can produce very high (loud) sound levels. Always adjust controls to minimum settings before using the phone and alert other users that hearing damage can potentially result from misuse.
WARNING!
This product can be hazardous if immersed in water. To avoid the possibility of electrical
shock, do not use it while in the bathtub or shower, or 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 and the power pack from the AC wall outlet. Do not plug the telephone back in until it has dried thoroughly. Avoid using the telephone during electrical
storms in your immediate area. Urgent calls should be brief. Even though your telephone
company may be using protective measures to limit electrical surges from entering your
home, absolute protection from lighting is impossible. If you suspect a gas leak, report it
immediately. But use a telephone away from the affected area. The telephone’s electrical
contacts could create a tiny spark. While unlikely, it is possible this spark could ignite
heavy concentrations of gas.
