Cordless Internet Phone with Skype Model SPH200D User Manual  
Due to the radio signals between base station and handset, wearers of hearing aids may  
experience interference in the form of a humming noise.  
Use only the battery type provided in the box. Do not use lithium or non-rechargeable  
batteries. For more information about battery safety, see “Batteries” in Appendix A.  
Digital Security System  
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against false ringing, unauthorized  
access, and charges to your phone line.  
There is a unique digital security code programmed into each unit. When the base and the handset  
are powered up the first time, the handset automatically links with the base ready for normal and  
secure use. If you have also purchased additional accessory handsets, you will need to follow the  
registration procedure in “Registering Your Handset” in Chapter 7. This will help maintain the  
digital security.  
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)  
This telephone system meets FCC and Industry Canada standards for Hearing Aid Compatibility.  
Note: This telephone works by sending radio signals between the base unit and the  
handset. These signals may interfere with some hearing aids, causing a humming  
noise.

Batteries  
Danger: NIMH batteries must be disposed of in accordance with the applicable waste  
disposal regulations.  
Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire, as they can explode.  
Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is corrosive and can cause damage to  
the eyes or skin. It can be toxic if swallowed.  
Avoid contact with metal objects when handling the battery. These objects could make short  
circuit across the battery terminals that could cause the batteries or conductor to overheat  
resulting in burns.  
Do not attempt to recharge the battery cell by heating it. Sudden release of battery electrolyte  
can cause burns or irritation to the eyes or skin.  
Observe the proper polarity, or direction, of any battery. Reverse insertion of the battery cell  
can result in leakage or explosion.  
Remove the battery cells if you do not plan to use the product for several months at a time.  
Discard any “dead” batteries because they are likely to leak into the product.  
Do not store this product or the battery in a high temperature area. Battery stored in a freezer  
or refrigerator should be protected from condensation during storage and defrosting. Battery  
should be stabilized at room temperature before using.  
Your battery is rechargeable and can be recycled once it outlives its usefulness. Depending  
upon your local and state law, it might be illegal to dispose of this battery into a municipal  
waste system. Check with your local solid waste company for more information on your  
recycling options for the battery cells.
