English
Your unit is a technically advanced product and should be treated
with the greatest care. Negligence may void the warranty.
When using your unit, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of re, electric shock and injury to
persons, including the following:
Read and understand all instructions.
Follow instructions and warnings marked on the unit.
Do not use this product near water, for example, near a
bathtub, bathroom sink, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement or near a swimming pool.
Protect the unit from moisture. Rain/snowfall, moisture and
all types of liquid can contain substances that corrode the
electronic circuits.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the unit.
If the unit gets wet, unplug the unit from the wall outlet and
remove the battery. Allow the unit to dry completely before
reinserting the battery. Using the unit while wet may be dangerous.
Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an
electrical storm. There is a remote risk of electric shock from
lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of
the leak.
Do not use or keep the unit in dusty, dirty environments. The
unit’s moving parts and electronic components can be damaged.
Do not keep the unit in warm places. High temperatures can
reduce the lifespan of electronic equipment, damage batteries
and distort or melt certain plastics.
Do not keep the unit in cold places. When the unit warms up
to normal temperature, condensation may form on the inside,
which can damage the electronic circuits.
The unit and the accessories may contain small parts. Keep
the unit out of reach of small children. Never allow children to
play with the unit. Small parts are a choking hazard, and the
amplied volume may cause hearing damage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

English
Although there is no single volume setting that is appropriate
for everyone, you should always use the handset with the
volume set at moderate levels and avoid prolonged exposure
to high sound levels. The louder the volume, the less time
is required before your hearing could be affected. If you
experience hearing discomfort, you should stop using the unit.
To protect your hearing some experts suggest that you:
Set the volume control at a low position and then adjust the
volume to a comfortable level.
Limit the amount of time you use the handset at high volume.
Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
The advice applies to the unit, battery, AC adapter and other
accessories. If the telephone is not working as it should, please
contact the place of purchase for service. Don’t forget the receipt or a
copy of the invoice.

and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68
rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to
be connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant.
Notes
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the
telephone company.

not be able to use your own telephone equipment if you are on a
party line. Check with your local telephone company.
Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent
disconnection of your telephone from your line.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected
to the telephone line, ensure the installation of this product
does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions
about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your telephone

2 Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may
harm the telephone network, the telephone company shall, where
practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service
may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the
circumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case of such
temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly
notify you of such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the
opportunity to correct the situation; and (3) inform you of your right to
bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth
in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
The telephone company may make changes in its communications
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures where such action is
required in the operation of its business and not inconsistent with
FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect
the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone
company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to
maintain uninterrupted service.
Interference Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may
not cause harmful interference; and (2) This device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance

not occur in a particular installation.

7
English
Privacy of Communications may not be ensured when using this
product.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna
for radio or television that is “receiving” the interference).
Reorient or relocate and increase the separation between the
telecommunications equipment and receiving antenna.
Connect the telecommunications equipment into an outlet on
a circuit different from that to which the receiving antenna is
connected.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference, please consult
your dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional
suggestions. Also, the Federal Communications Commission has
prepared a helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve Radio/
TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is available from the U.S.
Government Printing Ofce, Washington, D.C. 20402. Please specify
stock number 004-000-00345-4 when ordering copies.
