5. Only put the handset of your telephone next to your ear when it is in normal talk mode.
6. The power adapters are intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor 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.
