IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing telephone equipment, always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, including:

■Read and understand all instructions. (Pay particular attention to Communications System Hardware on page 2-2 and Mail System Site Requirements on page 2-3.)

■Follow all warnings and instructions marked on or packed with the product.

■Never install this unit or telephone wiring for it during a lightning storm.

■Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

■Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone wiring has been disconnected at the network interface.

■Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

■Use only PARTNER modules in the PARTNER communications system control unit.

■Use only recommended/approved PARTNER communications system accessories.

■Do not install this product near water, for example, in a wet basement location.

■Do not overload wall outlets, as this can result in the risk of fire or electrical shock.

■The mail system is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug with a third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit only into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding plug.

■Do not attach the power supply cord to building surfaces. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product where the cord will be abused by persons walking on it.

■Vents on the sides of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To protect this equipment from overheating, do not block these openings.

■Never push objects of any kind into this product through vent openings in the unit, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or may short out parts, which could result in a risk of fire or electrical shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on this product.

■If there is not sufficient room on the existing wood mounting surface, either secure a new surface (a piece of plywood) or use wall studs to install the mail system unit. This ensures permanent mounting and prevents wall damage.

■Unplug the product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Dust with a soft cloth. Do not use cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

■Do not operate the system if chemical gas leakage is suspected in the area. Use telephones located in some other safe area to report the trouble.

WARNING:
