•Electrical power: The telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made if the telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.

•Power adapter: This power adapter is intended to be plugged into a vertical wall outlet or a floor outlet. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

Two-way recording: This telephone does not sound warning beeps to let the other party know that the call is being recorded. To ensure that you are in compliance with any federal or state regulations regarding recording a telephone call, you should start the recording process and then inform the other party that you are recording the call.
