IMPORTANT USER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The most careful attention has been devoted to quality standards in the manufacture o f
your new telephone. Safety is a major factor in the design of every set. But, safety is
YOUR responsibility too.
Please read carefully the helpful tips listed below. These suggestions will enable you to
take full advantage of your new voice terminal. Then, retain these tips fo r later use.
!WARNING:
All powering over telecommunication wiring must be via UL listed power supplies with
outputs of 42-56 Volts DC, 1.3 Amps DC.
This telephone is NOT for residential use. It is for business systems applications ONLY.
It will NOT operate on public networks. Use in a residential environment could result in
an electrical short circuit when the telephone wiring is set up to provide othe r
applications, for example, for appliance control or power transformers. The optional AC
power used in these applications may create a safety hazard by placing a di rect short
circuit across the telephone wiring.

Use

When using your telephone equipment, the following safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons.
Read and understand all instructions.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the telephone.
This telephone can be hazardous if immersed in water. Do not use this product near
water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement or near a swimming pool. To avoid the possibility of electric shock, do not
use it while you are wet. If you accidentally drop the telephone into water, d o not
retrieve it until you have first unplugged the line cord from the modular w all jack.
Then, call service personnel to ask about a replacement.
Avoid using the telephone during electrical storms in your immediate area. There is
a risk of electric shock from lightning. Urgent calls should be brief. Even though
protective measures may have been installed to limit electrical surges from entering
your business, absolute protection from lightning is impossible.
If you suspect a natural gas leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone aw ay
from the area in question. The telephone’s electrical contacts could genera te a tiny
spark. While unlikely, it is possible that this spark could ignite heavy concentrations
of gas.
Never push objects of any kind into the equipment through housing slots since they
may touch hazardous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of
electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the telephone. If liquid is spilled,
however, refer servicing to proper service personnel.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this telephone. There are
no user serviceable parts. Opening or removing covers may expose you to
hazardous voltages. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the
telephone is subsequently used.

Before cleaning, unplug the telephone from the wall jack. Do not use liquid cleaners
or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
Unplug the telephone from the modular wall jack. Be sure to refer servicing to
qualified service personnel when these conditions exist:
