main disconnecting device.

Warning

Caution Use only a Cisco specified power supply with this product.

Power Outage

Your accessibility to emergency service through the phone is dependent on the phone being powered.

If there is an interruption in the power supply, Service and Emergency Calling Service dialing will not

function until power is restored. In the case of a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or

reconfigure equipment before using the Service or Emergency Calling Service dialing.
