aerosol cleaners.  
To prevent severe injury and loss of life/  
property, read this section carefully before  
using the product to ensure proper and safe  
operation of your product.  
L Do not disassemble the product.  
L 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.  
WARNING  
Power connection  
Medical  
L Use only the power source marked on the  
product.  
L 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.).)  
L Do not overload power outlets and  
extension cords. This can result in the risk  
of fire or electric shock.  
L 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.  
L 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.  
L 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).  
L Unplug from power outlets and never touch  
the inside of the product if its casing has  
been broken open.  
L Never touch the plug with wet hands.  
Danger of electric shock exists.  
L 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.  
CAUTION  
Installation and location  
L Never install telephone wiring during an  
electrical storm.  
L Never install telephone line jacks in wet  
locations unless the jack is specifically  
designed for wet locations.  
L Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or  
terminals unless the telephone line has  
been disconnected at the network interface.  
Installation  
L To prevent the risk of fire or electrical shock,  
do not expose the product to rain or any  
type of moisture.  
L 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.  
L Use caution when installing or modifying  
telephone lines.  
L The AC adaptor is used as the main  
disconnect device. Ensure that the AC  
outlet is installed near the product and is  
easily accessible.  
L This product is unable to make calls when:  
– the handset batteries need recharging or  
have failed.  
L Do not allow the AC adaptor or telephone  
line cord to be excessively pulled, bent or

most but not all areas, the sum of RENs  
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain  
of the number of devices that may be
