The user should not plug the phone into a power outlet, and should not put a charged handset into the cradle, if the phone is located in an environment containing concentrations of flammable or flame-supporting gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark in such an environment could create a fire or explosion. Such environments might include: medical use of oxygen without adequate ventilation; industrial gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc. • Do not use this product near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use it in a wet basement or shower, or next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink, or laundry tub. Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquid, unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has dried thoroughly. • Avoid placing the telephone system in places with extreme temperature, direct sunlight, or other electrical devices. Protect your phone from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes. • Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion. • If this product does not operate normally, see the Frequently asked questions section on pages 93-99 of this user's manual. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the Limited warranty section on pages 107-108. Do not open this product except as directed in your user's manual. Opening the product or reassembling it incorrectly may expose you to hazardous voltages or other risks. • This power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, an under-the-table or cabinet outlet. • For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. Cautions: • Use only the power adapter provided with this product. To obtain a replacement, visit our website at www.vtechphones.com or call 1 (800) 595-9511. In Canada, please dial 1 (800) 267-7377. • To prevent risk of fire or battery explosion, replace with the correct battery type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. 101
