Safety information : This equipment is not designed for making emergency calls when  
the power fails. An alternative should be made available for access to emergency calls.  
Power requirements : The product requires an electrical supply of 220-240 volts, single  
phase alternating current, excluding IT installations defined in standard EN 60-950.  
WARNING ! The electrical network is classified as dangerous according to criteria in the
