IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to people, including the following:

1.	DO NOT use this product near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or washing machine, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
2.	Avoid using this product during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
3.	DO NOT use this product to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

IMPORTANT-For Your Safety

To ensure safe operation, the two-pin plug or the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a standard two-pin power point or three-pin power point which is effectively grounded through the normal household wiring.

Extension cords used with the equipment must be two-conductor or three-conductor and be correctly wired to provide connection to ground. Incorrectly wired extension cords are a major cause of fatalities.

The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power is grounded and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding of the power, consult a qualified electrician.

Disconnect device

This machine must be installed near a power outlet, which is easily accessible. In case of emergencies, you must disconnect the power cord from the power outlet in order to shut off power completely.
