For your safety
To prevent severe injury and loss of life/ property,
read this section carefully before using the product

WARNING
Power connection
•Use only the power source marked on the product.
•Do not overload power outlets and extension
cords. This can result in the risk of fire or electric
shock.
•Completely insert the AC adaptor/power plug into
the power outlet. Failure to do so may cause
electric shock and/or excessive heat resulting in a
fire.
•Regularly remove any dust, etc. from the AC
adaptor/power plug by pulling it from the power
outlet, then wiping with a dry cloth. Accumulated
dust may cause an insulation defect from
moisture, etc. resulting in a fire.

18
•Unplug the product from power outlets if it emits
smoke, an abnormal smell, or makes an unusual
noise. These conditions can cause fire or electric
shock. Confirm that smoke has stopped emitting
and contact the Panasonic Call Center at 1-800-
211-PANA (1-800-211-7262).
•Unplug from power outlets and never touch the
inside of the product if its casing has been broken
open.
•Never touch the plug with wet hands. Danger of
electric shock exists.
Installation
•To prevent the risk of fire or electrical shock, do
not expose the product to rain or any type of
moisture.
•Do not place or use this product near
automatically controlled devices such as automatic
doors and fire alarms. Radio waves emitted from
this product may cause such devices to
malfunction resulting in an accident.
•Do not allow the AC adaptor or telephone line cord
to be excessively pulled, bent or placed under
heavy objects.

19
Operating safeguards
•Unplug the product from power outlets before
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
•Do not disassemble the product.
•Do not spill liquids (detergents, cleansers, etc.)
onto the telephone line cord plug, or allow it to
become wet at all. This may cause a fire. If the
telephone line cord plug becomes wet,
immediately pull it from the telephone wall jack,
and do not use.
Medical
•Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical
devices, such as pacemakers or hearing aids, to
determine if they are adequately shielded from
external RF (radio frequency) energy. (The
product operates in the frequency range of 1.92
GHz to 1.93 GHz, and the RF transmission power
is 115 mW (max.).)
•Do not use the product in health care facilities if
any regulations posted in the area instruct you not
to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
