WARNING

■The MFC must be grounded using a 3-prong plug.

■Since the MFC is grounded through the power outlet, protect yourself from potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the telephone line by keeping the power to your MFC on when you connect it to a telephone line. When you want to move your MFC, protect yourself by disconnecting the telephone line first, and then the power cord.
