Operating safeguards  
R Unplug the product from power outlets  
before cleaning. Do not use liquid or  
aerosol cleaners.  
R Do not disassemble the product.  
R Do not spill liquids (detergents, cleansers,  
etc.) onto the telephone line cord plug, or

may cause electric shock and/or excessive  
heat resulting in a fire.  
R Regularly remove any dust, etc. from the  
AC adaptor/power plug by pulling it from  
the power outlet, then wiping with a dry  
cloth. Accumulated dust may cause an  
insulation defect from moisture, etc.  
resulting in a fire.  
Medical  
R Consult the manufacturer of any personal  
medical devices, such as pacemakers or  
hearing aids, to determine if they are  
adequately shielded from external RF  
(radio frequency) energy. (The product  
operates in the frequency range of  
1.92 GHz to 1.93 GHz, and the RF  
transmission power is 115 mW (max.).)  
R Do not use the product in health care  
facilities if any regulations posted in the

health care facilities may be using  
equipment that could be sensitive to  
external RF energy.  
R Unplug the product from power outlets if it  
emits smoke, an abnormal smell, or makes  
an unusual noise. These conditions can  
cause fire or electric shock. Confirm that  
smoke has stopped emitting and contact

Important safety  
instructions  
Battery  
When using your product, basic safety  
precautions should always be followed to  
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and  
injury to persons, including the following:  
1. Do not use this product near water for  
example, near a bathtub, washbowl,  
kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet

Some cordless telephones operate at  
frequencies that may cause interference to  
nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or  
prevent such interference, the base of the

near or on top of a TV or VCR. If  
interference is experienced, move the  
cordless telephone further away from the TV  
or VCR. This will often reduce or eliminate  
interference.
