Safety Information

Shock Hazard
To avoid shock hazard:
The power cord and any other equipment to which this product is attached
must be connected to properly wired receptacles. Do not connect or dis-
connect any cables or perform installation, maintenance, or reconfiguration
of this product during an electrical storm.
When using telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury. Never
install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically
designed for wet locations.
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone
line has been disconnected at the network interface. Use caution when
installing or modifying telephone lines. Avoid using a telephone (other
than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote
risk of electrical shock from lightning. Do not use the telephone to report a
gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Connecting the Modem
Do not connect the Modem to a digital PBX (switchboard) system, as dam-
age to the Modem can occur. Modems are designed to function with analog
telephone lines, such as residential lines.
Do not connect the Modem to an ISDN line. In some areas, ISDN (digital)
lines are provided for residences and businesses. These lines may damage
the Modem.
Note: The Modem is fully compatible with analog telephone
lines connected to a Digital Exchange. Digital Exchanges are used
in some areas to supply analog lines to homes and businesses.
