IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using your telephone equipment, the following safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to people.
•Read and understand all instructions.
•Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the equipment.
•Installation must be performed in accordance with all national wiring rules.
•The outlet to which this equipment is con- nected must be installed near the equipment, and must always be readily accessible.
•This equipment can be hazardous if im- mersed in water. To avoid the possibility of electrical shock, do not use this equipment while you are in the bathtub or shower, or when you are wet. If you accidentally drop the equipment into water, do not retrieve it until you have first unplugged all cords. Do not reconnect this equipment until it has dried thoroughly.
•Avoid using this equipment during electrical storms in your immediate area. There is a remote 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 home or business, absolute protection from lightning is impossible.
•If you suspect a natural gas leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone away from the area in question. The SoundStation2 Direct Connect’s electrical contacts could generate 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 SoundStation2 Direct Connect through housing slots as 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, contact service personnel.
•To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble SoundStation2 Direct Connect. Opening or removing covers may expose you to hazardous voltages. Using incorrectly reassembled equipment can cause electric shock. If your telephone equipment does not work properly, refer to the section de- scribing how to connect service. The support telephone number can be found on the back cover of this booklet.
•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.
•Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected from the network interface.
•Always use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
