Important Safety Instructions

Follow these basic safety precautions when using your MLC-6
cordless phone.
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock
Failure to properly ground this product will result in a risk of
electrical shock, which can cause serious personal injury. This
product requires a 3-prong AC power receptacle for safe
operation. You should have your receptacle checked by a
qualified electrician before connecting this equipment.
WARNING
Do not open or mutilate batteries. They contain caustic and
toxic chemicals. Do not dispose of in fires. The batteries may
explode and cause severe personal injury. Dispose of them in
accordance with the local sanitation codes.
Read and understand all instructions.
Follow all cautions, warnings, and instructions marked on the
product.
This product can be hazardous if immersed in water. To avoid
the possibility of electrical shock, do not use it while in the
bathtub or shower, or when you are wet. If you accidentally
drop it into water, do not retrieve it until you have first un-
plugged the power cord from the wall outlet and the line cord
from the modular wall jack. Refer service to qualified service
personnel.
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 Tele-
phones" may be used in such hazardous environments.
