Since the machine is grounded through the power outlet, you can protect yourself from 
potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the telephone line by keeping the power 
to your machine on when you connect it to a telephone line. When you want to move 
your machine, protect yourself by disconnecting the telephone line first, and then the 
power cord.

Lightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that you use a 
quality surge protection device on the AC power line as well as on the telephone line, 
or unplug the lines during a lightning storm.
