Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your own safety,
take caution when using electrical appliances during storms.
Cleaning your headset
Your headset has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft
cloth slightly dampened with water or mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.

About cordless headset
•
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless headset convenient create some limitations. Telephone
calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the cordless headset by radio waves, so there is a
possibility that the cordless telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment
within range of the cordless headset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone
conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.
•
•
Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless headset must be connected to a working electrical
outlet. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the
cordless headset if the telephone base is unplugged, switched off or if the electrical power is interrupted.
Potential TV interference: Some cordless headsets operate at frequencies that may cause interference to
televisions and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of which
the cordless headset is registered near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the
cordless headset farther away from the TV or VCR often reduces or eliminates the interference.
•
Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture
the battery. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material
which could cause injury.
The RBRC® seal
The RBRC® seal on the lithium-ion battery indicates that VTech Communications, Inc.
is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle these batteries
at the end of their useful lives, when taken out of service within the United States and
Canada.
The RBRC® program provides a convenient alternative to placing used lithium-ion
batteries into the trash or municipal waste, which may be illegal in your area.
VTech’s participation in RBRC® makes it easy for you to drop off the spent battery at
local retailers participating in the RBRC® program or at authorized VTech product service
TM
centers. Please call 1 (800) 8 BATTERY
for information on Li-ion battery recycling and
disposal bans/restrictions in your area. VTech’s involvement in this program is part of its
commitment to protecting our environment and conserving natural resources.
RBRC® is a registered trademark of Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation.
