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.

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.
