IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always follow these basic safety precautions when using your telephone equipment. These precautions reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to you and damage to the equipment.
??? Read and understand all instructions.
???Follow all warnings and instructions marked on or packed with the telephone.
???Do not use the telephone near water, as in a wet basement. The telephone can be hazardous if immersed in water. To avoid the possibility of electrical shock, do not use it when you are wet. If you accidentally drop it into water, do not retrieve it until you have first unplugged the line cord from the modular wall jack. Do not plug the telephone back in until it has dried thoroughly.
???Do not use the telephone (other than a
telephone) during electrical storms in your immediate area. There is a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
??? Unplug the telephone from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners on the phone.
v
???Never push objects of any kind into the telephone through openings or slots. Never spill liquid of any kind on the telephone.
???Do not use the telephone near a gas leak. If you suspect a gas leak, report it immediately, but use a telephone away from the area in question. The telephone???s electrical contacts could generate a tiny spark. While unlikely, it is possible that the spark could ignite heavy concentrations of gas.
???To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the telephone. There are no

WARNING:
???For your personal safety DO NOT install an MFM yourself.
???ONLY an authorized AT&T technician or dealer rep- resentative shall install, set options, or repair an MFM.
???To eliminate the risk of personal injury due to electric shock, DO NOT attempt to install or remove an MFM from your MLX telephone. Opening or removing the module cover of your telephone may expose you to
dangerous voltages.

Programming Features
Your company may have already labeled and programmed features onto line buttons. You can program any unlabeled line buttons with the features of your choice. While it isn???t necessary to program most features onto line buttons, it???s much faster to use the features if you do.
In addition to features that you program onto line buttons, you can program other features to set up the way you want your phone to work. Once one of these features is programmed, you don???t need to press a programmed button to use it. For example, you can program your phone with Ringing Options to change how your phone rings, or you can turn on Call Waiting to make sure important calls get through.
To Program Features Using Programming Codes
Before you begin programming, remove the clear plastic that covers the button labeling card and write in the names of the features next to the buttons to be programmed. Replace the cover with the textured side up.
