Important Safety Instructions
When using your equipment, basic safety precautions, including the following,
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to
persons:
■ Read and understand all instructions.
■ Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
■ This product can be hazardous if immersed in water. To avoid the
possibility of electric shock, do not use when you are wet. If you
accidentally drop it into water, do not retrieve it until you have first
unplugged the power cord from the alternating current (AC) outlet, the
line cord from the modular wall jack, and all interconnecting cords from
the terminal equipment. Do not plug the cords back in until the product
has dried thoroughly.
■ Avoid touching the product during electrical storms in your immediate
area. There is a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. Even though
protective measures may have been installed to limit electrical surges
from entering your business, absolute protection from lightning is
impossible.
■ Never push objects of any kind through housing slots as they may touch
hazardous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of
electrical shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
■ Disconnect the cords on this product before cleaning. Do not use liquid
cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
■ Slots and openings in the housing and the back or bottom are provided
for ventilation to protect it from overheating; these openings must not be
blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing
the product on a 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 unless proper ventilation is provided.
■ This product should be operated only from the type of power unit
indicated in this manual. If you are not sure of the type of power supply
being used, contact a qualified service person.
