Safety Instructions

! WARNING:

The rechargeable battery contains nickel and cadmium. Do not burn or puncture the battery. Like other batteries of this type, if it is burned or punctured, it could release toxic material, which could cause injury. Do not dispose of it in household garbage. For information about recycling or proper disposal, consult your local solid waste (garbage) collection or disposal organization.

Read and understand all instructions in this booklet before using this product.

Observe all warnings and instructions marked on the product.

Do not use the product near water or when you are wet. If product comes in contact with any liquids, unplug the power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has dried thoroughly.

Never push objects of any kind into this product through housing slots because the objects 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 pocket phone.

Never place this product near or over a radiator or heat register.

Slots and openings in the housing and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. To protect the housing from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. Therefore, do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Also, do not place this product in an enclosed area unless proper ventilation is provided.

Use only the correct power source. If you are not sure of the power supply to your location, consult your local power company.

This product uses a 3-prong plus in continental US locations. Such plugs are designed for your safety. Do not attempt to defeat this purpose. If your wall outlet does not accept the plug, the outlet should be replaced by an electrician.

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. Do not overload wall outlets as this can result in the risk of fire or electric shock. Do not staple or otherwise attach the power cord to building surfaces.

Use only the type of battery pack shipped with this product.

If you suspect a gas leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone away from the area in question. The telephone’s electrical contacts could generate a tiny spark. While unlikely, it is possible that this spark could ignite a heavy concentration of gas. This product is not approved for use in areas labeled by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as “explosive environments.” Only “Explosive Atmosphere Telephones” may be used in such hazardous environments.
