Safety Information

Shock Hazard

To avoid shock hazard:

The power cord and any other equipment to which this product is attached

must be connected to properly wired receptacles. Do not connect or dis-

connect any cables or perform installation, maintenance, or reconfiguration

of this product during an electrical storm.

When using telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always

be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury. Never

install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically

designed for wet locations.

Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone

line has been disconnected at the network interface. Use caution when

installing or modifying telephone lines. Avoid using a telephone (other

than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote

risk of electrical shock from lightning. Do not use the telephone to report a

gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

Connecting the Modem

Do not connect the Modem to a digital PBX (switchboard) system, as dam-

age to the Modem can occur. Modems are designed to function with analog

telephone lines, such as residential lines.

lines are provided for residences and businesses. These lines may damage

the Modem.
