Your PMP-3860 telephone has been designed to give years of trouble-free
service. It is a sensitive electronic instrument. To assure its longevity, please
read the following maintenance instructions.
1. Keep the PMP-3860 away from heat as high temperatures can shorten the
life of the electrical components and distort or melt its plastic parts.
2. The PMP-3860 should be kept free of dust and moisture. If it gets wet, wipe
it dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode electronic
circuits.
3. Handle your PMP-3860 gently and carefully. Dropping it can cause serious
damage to circuitry, or the plastic case, which may result in malfunction.
4. Do not use any type of chemical or any abrasive powder to clean the
cabinet. Use only mild detergents on a soft, damp cloth to clean the PMP-
3860 telephone.
5. The PMP-3860 has built-in surge protection circuits that meet or exceed
FCC requirements. However, an incident such as a lightning strike at or near
the telephone lines, could cause serious damage.
6. If the PMP-3860 is installed in an area with frequent or severe electrical
storms, it is suggested that the telephone be disconnected during these
storms or that additional surge suppression equipment be added to the
installation.
7. In the case of trouble with the telephone, do not attempt to repair the
telephone yourself. It is the responsibility of users requiring service to report
the need for service to our Service Department. They will make the
necessary arrangements for repair or replacement.
8. If you should have any questions about the operation of your PMP-3860
telephone, please call our Service Department at
