Telephone Safety
The telephone is one of the safest appliances
you own. There are, however, a few
situations when a telephone user needs to be
cautious.
Use of the telephone near water.
The telephone should not be close to a
washbasin, shower, or swimming pool.
Immersion of the telephone receiver in water
could cause an electrical shock.
Use of the telephone during an electrical
storm.
You should avoid using the telephone during
an electrical storm. Although protective
devices and proper grounding limit abnormal
electrical surges from entering the telephone,
absolute protection is impossible. There is a
remote risk of a dangerous electrical shock
from lightning.
Use of the telephone lo report a gas leak.
If you think you have found a gas leak, you
should not use a telephone in the vicinity of
the leak. The telephone contains electrical
contacts that could generate a tiny spark
when you lift the receiver and dial.
