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 cart, stand, or table. The product may fall,
causing serious damage to the product.
6. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. To
protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked by placing the product
on the bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product 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 ventilation is not provided.
7. This product should be operated only from the type of power source 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 locate this product where the cord
will be abused by persons walking on it.
9. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or 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. If service or repair
work is required, contact VTech Customer Service at 1-800-595-9511. 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 appliance
is subsequently used.

electric shock.

a) When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
b) If liquid has been spilled into the product.
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions because improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work
to restore the product to normal operation.
e) If the product has been dropped and the cabinet has been damaged.
f ) If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
13. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There
may be a remote risk of electric shock from lighting.
