the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
3. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid
cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
4. Do not use this product near water (for example, near a bath tub, kitchen
sink, or swimming pool).
5. Do not place this product on an unstable surface. The product may fall,
causing serious damage.
6. Slots and openings in the Handset and Base Unit are provided for ventilation.
To protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked by
placing the product on a soft surface such as a bed, sofa or rug. This prod-
uct should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This
product should not be placed in a built-in installation where proper ventila-
tion is not provided.
7.

indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not install this product
where the cord might be damaged by anyone walking on it.
9.
Never push objects of any kind into this product through the slots in the

short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on the product.
10. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product, but
take it to an authorized service facility. Opening or removing cabinet parts
other than specified access doors may expose you to dangerous voltages
or other risks. Incorrect reassembling can cause electric shock when the
