including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on
the telephone.
3. Do not use this telephone near a bathtub, wash
basin, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, near a swimming pool or anywhere
else there is water.
4. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless
type) during a storm. There may be a
remote risk of electrical shock from lightning.
5. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in
the vicinity of the leak.
6. Unplug this telephone from the wall outlets before
cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners on the telephone. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning.
7. Place this telephone on a stable surface. Serious

near or over a radiator or heat register. This
telephone should not be placed in a built-in
installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
9. Operate this telephone using the electrical
voltage as stated on the base unit or the owner’s
