RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK: Follow all warnings and cautions.
WARNING:
ONLY a qualified technician should install, repair, or set options
for an MFM.
Do not touch the circuitry on the MFM. Touching the circuitry
may result in component damage from electrostatic discharge.
Before installing the MFM, disconnect all trunk and/or power
cords attached to the MLX telephone. This is to ensure that no
hazardous voltages are present during assembly. Ringing
voltage from the MFM attached to the MLX telephone can cause
electrical shock if adjustments are made while the cords are
connected.
