█ IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and understand the Installation Guide and User Manual.
When using your phone equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock and injury to person, including the following:
WARNING: The A1600 phone is capable of amplifying sounds
to a loud volume. It is important to instruct all potential users
of its proper operation. It is advised to adjust the volume
control to the minimum level (Low) when not in use and alert
other users that hearing damage can potentially
result from misuse.
WARNING: Use only the power supply indicated in
the User’s Manual.
WARNING: To avoid the possibility of electrical shock, do not

7 – ENGLISH
use this product near water (For example, near a bathtub,
wash basin, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement or
near a swimming pool) while in the bathtub or shower or when
you are wet. If the phone becomes submerged in water, do not
attempt to retrieve it until after you have unplugged the AC
adapter from the electrical outlet and the line cord from the
modular wall jack. Do not plug the phone back in until it has
dried completely.
WARNING: Avoid using the phone during electrical storms.
There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
If the electrical storm is present in your immediate area,
possibility of electrical shock exists.
WARNING: Do not use the phone if you suspect a gas leak in
the area. The phone’s electrical contact could create a spark,
which could ignite any heavy concentration of leaking gas.
WARNING: When cleaning, unplug the phone first, and then
use a damp cloth to wipe. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners on the phone.
WARNING: No phone should ever be placed near an open
radiator or heating register.
WARNING: Occasionally a power surge can occur on electrical
lines without warning. With any electrical device that you plug
into an outlet, it is suggested you use a surge protector. A
surge protector will prevent power surges from damaging your
phone. Surge protectors are simple devices available at your
local hardware store.
WARNING: Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as
this can increase the risk of fire or electrical shock.
WARNING: Never push any object through the slots in the
phone. They can touch dangerous voltage points or short out
parts that could results in risk of fire or electrical shock.
WARNING: Do not cover slots and opening on the units, they
are needed for ventilation and protection against overheating.
WARNING: Stop using the phone if dropped or if it
becomes damaged.
WARNING: Ring volume is very loud and can damage your
hearing. Never put your ear close to the ringer.
WARNING: Pay attention to the polarity of the batteries

8 – ENGLISH
and insert the rechargeable batteries in accordance with the
polarity symbols. Use only batteries identified as acceptable
and never use alkaline batteries, which can cause personal
injury as well as damage to the unit.
