2 ENGLISH IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – POWER SUPPLY INSTALLATION. Connect the power supply cord to the power jack on the Motorola Netopia ® Gateway. Plug the power supply into an appropriate electri-cal outlet. CAUTION: Depending on the power supply provided with the product, either the direct plug-in power supply blades, power supply cord plug or the appliance coupler serves as the mains power disconnect. It is impor-tant that the direct plug-in power supply, socket-outlet or appliance coupler be located so it is readily acces-sible. TELECOMMUNICATION INSTALLATION. When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precau-tions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:• Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.• 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. PRODUCT VENTILATION. The Motorola Netopia ® Gateway is intended for use in a consumer's home. Ambient temperatures around this product should not exceed 104°F (40°C). It should not be used in locations exposed to outside heat radiation or trapping of its own heat. The product should have at least one inch of clearance on all sides except the bottom when properly installed and should not be placed inside tightly enclosed spaces unless proper ventilation is provided.
