Important Safeguards
Always follow these important safeguards:
1
Read all of these instructions before using your unit.
2
Do not use this unit near water; for example, near a bath tub, sink or swimming
pool.
3
Avoid using the telephone during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of
electric shock from lighting.
4
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of this unit.
5
Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local codes for possible special
disposal instruction.
6
Plug the power cord only into a 3-conductor
(grounded) outlet rated for at least 15 amperes.
•
Never ground the power cord to a gas pipe or
a water pipe.
•
Keep the power cord away from hot surfaces.
•
Avoid using an extension cord if at all
possible. If you must use an extension cord,
use only a 3-conductor cord rated for at least
15 amperes. Cords rated for less might
overheat and become a fire hazard.
•
Do not operate your unit if any part of it is
damaged, or if any part has been dropped, until it is checked by a qualified
technician.
7
Do not install your unit in areas that are:
•
Damp or humid
•
Exposed to direct sunlight
•
Extremely dusty
•
Poorly ventilated
•
Subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes. For example, don’t locate
your copier near an air conditioner or heater.
8
Install your unit with space around it to provide adequate ventilation.
9
Do not place the unit near a television or radio. If the unit is too close it may inter-
fere with the reception.
