precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons.
Do not use this product with a telephone connection near water (for example,
near a bathtub, sink, swimming pool, or in a wet basement).
Avoid using a telephone connection (other than a cordless type) during an
electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electrical shock from lightning.
Do not use a telephone connection to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this guide. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local codes for possible special
disposal instructions.
Disconnect the modem cable before opening the notebook case or touching an
uninsulated modem cable, jack, or internal component.
