1 Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
2 Unplug the telephone from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use
liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
3 Do not use the telephone near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash
bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming
pool.
4 Do not place the telephone on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The

5 Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom of the telephone
