5. Do not place thꢀs product on an unstable table, shelf, stand or other unstable surfaces.
6. Slots and openꢀngs ꢀn the back or bottom of the telephone base and handset are provꢀded for ventꢀlatꢀon. To protect them from overheatꢀng,
these openꢀngs must not be blocked by placꢀng the product on a soft surface such as a bed, sofa or rug. Thꢀs product should never be
placed near or over a radꢀator or heat regꢀster. Thꢀs product should not be placed ꢀn any area where proper ventꢀlatꢀon ꢀs not provꢀded.
7. Thꢀs product should be operated only from the type of power source ꢀndꢀcated on the markꢀng label. If you are not sure of the type of power

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
Your cordless telephone contaꢀns sophꢀstꢀcated electronꢀc parts, so ꢀt must be treated wꢀth care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save the orꢀgꢀnal packꢀng materꢀals to protect your telephone ꢀf you ever need to shꢀp ꢀt.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged ꢀf ꢀt gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors ꢀn the raꢀn, or handle ꢀt wꢀth wet hands. Do not ꢀnstall the
telephone base near a sꢀnk, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrꢀcal storms can sometꢀmes cause power surges harmful to electronꢀc equꢀpment. For your own safety, take cautꢀon when usꢀng electrꢀcal
applꢀances durꢀng storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastꢀc casꢀng that should retaꢀn ꢀts luster for many years. Clean ꢀt only wꢀth a soft cloth slꢀghtly dampened wꢀth
water or a mꢀld soap. Do not use excess water or cleanꢀng solvents of any kꢀnd.
Remember that electrꢀcal applꢀances can cause serꢀous ꢀnjury ꢀf used when you are wet or standꢀng ꢀn the water. If the telephone base should
fall ꢀnto the water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL.
Then pull the unꢀt out by the unplugged cords.

About cordless telephones
•
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenꢀent create some lꢀmꢀtatꢀons. Telephone calls are transmꢀtted between
the telephone base and the cordless handset by radꢀo waves, so there ꢀs a possꢀbꢀlꢀty that the cordless telephone conversatꢀons could be

Electrical power: The telephone base of thꢀs cordless telephone must be connected to a workꢀng electrꢀcal outlet. The electrꢀcal outlet
should not be controlled by a wall swꢀtch. Calls cannot be made from the cordless handset ꢀf the telephone base ꢀs unplugged or swꢀtched

Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencꢀes that may cause ꢀnterference to televꢀsꢀons and VCRs. To
mꢀnꢀmꢀze or prevent such ꢀnterference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If ꢀnterference
ꢀs experꢀenced, movꢀng the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR wꢀll often reduce or elꢀmꢀnate the ꢀnterference.

wꢀth the ꢀnstructꢀons, may cause harmful ꢀnterference to radꢀo communꢀcatꢀons. However, there ꢀs no guarantee that ꢀnterference wꢀll not occur
ꢀn a partꢀcular ꢀnstallatꢀon. If thꢀs equꢀpment does cause harmful ꢀnterference to radꢀo or televꢀsꢀon receptꢀon, whꢀch can be determꢀned by
turnꢀng the equꢀpment off and on, the user ꢀs encouraged to try to correct the ꢀnterference by one or more of the followꢀng measures:
•
•
•
•
Reorꢀent or relocate the receꢀvꢀng antenna.
Increase the separatꢀon between the equꢀpment and receꢀver.
Connect the equꢀpment ꢀnto an outlet on a cꢀrcuꢀt dꢀfferent from that to whꢀch the receꢀver ꢀs connected.
Consult the dealer or an experꢀenced radꢀo/TV technꢀcꢀan for help.

operatꢀon. Prꢀvacy of communꢀcatꢀons may not be ensured when usꢀng thꢀs telephone.
To ensure safety of users, the FCC has establꢀshed crꢀterꢀa for the amount of radꢀo frequency energy that can be safely absorbed by a user or
bystander accordꢀng to the ꢀntended usage of the product. Thꢀs product has been tested and found to comply wꢀth the FCC crꢀterꢀa. The handset
