Acknowledgement
In 1963, Dr. Robert H. Weitbrecht, an
American physicist who was deaf, developed an
acoustic coupler that could send and receive
teletypewriter signals over the telephone lines.
His invention, the Weitbrecht Modem, enabled
people who are deaf to use the telephone for
the first time.
While modern technology now makes it
possible to build advanced microcomputer
devices like your new Ultratec text telephone,
the Weitbrecht modem remains the major
technological breakthrough that began
telecommunications for the deaf. Ultratec wishes to acknowledge the importance
of Dr. Weitbrecht’s contribution to the welfare of people who are deaf the
world over.
Dr. Robert H. Weitbrecht,
1920-1983, inventor of the
first text telephone modem.

4 • SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Important safety instructions
When using your Superprint 4425, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and
injury to persons.
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions on the Superprint 4425.
3. Unplug the Superprint 4425 from the wall outlet before
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp
cloth for cleaning.
4. Do not use the Superprint 4425 near water, for example, near
a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool.
5. Do not place the Superprint 4425 on an unstable cart, stand,
or table. The Superprint 4425 may fall, causing serious damage
to the Superprint 4425.
6. The Superprint 4425 should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not
sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your
dealer or local power company.
7. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not
locate the Superprint 4425 where people can walk on the
cord.
8. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This over-
loading can result in a fire or electric shock.
9. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the
Superprint 4425, but take it to a qualified service person when
service or repair work is required. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks.
Incorrect re-assembly can cause electric shock when the
Superprint 4425 is subsequently used.
10.Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an
electrical storm. There is a remote risk of electric shock from
lightning.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • 5
11.Unplug the Superprint 4425 from the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
a. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
b. If liquid has been spilled into the Superprint 4425.
c. If the Superprint 4425 has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the Superprint 4425 does not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating instructions.
Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage
and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician
to restore the Superprint 4425 to normal operation.
e. If the Superprint 4425 has been dropped and/or damaged.
f. If the Superprint 4425 exhibits a distinct change in
performance.
12.Do not use the Superprint 4425 to report a gas leak in the
vicinity of the leak.
13.Ultratec recommends plugging your Superprint 4425 into a
surge-protected outlet. This will protect the TTY from damage
caused by electrical surges due to lightening or other causes.
Battery safety
Caution: To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons, read and
follow these instructions:
1. Use only the type and size battery specified in the battery
instructions for your unit.
2. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Cells may explode.
Check local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is
corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be
toxic if swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short them
with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys.
The battery or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
