Bone conduction earpiece
(KX-TG7180 only)
The handset features a bone conduction
earpiece that uses vibrations to create
sound during your telephone conversations.
For proper operation press the bone
conduction earpiece against your face near
the ear.
Normally, sound enters the ear canal and
vibrates the eardrum. People feel the
vibration within the inner ear and
comprehend it as it is received by the
auditory nerve.
Place the bone conduction earpiece against
your face (not your ear). Try different
locations to find which location works best.
Start with the temple area.
Note:
LDo not place the bone conduction
earpiece on a hearing aid. Howling or
other interference may be heard.
LThe effectiveness of the bone conduction
earpiece will vary by the type and degree
of hearing loss of the user.

LAs sound is generated by vibration, users
with normal hearing can use the handset
by placing the bone conduction earpiece
against the ear, as an ordinary telephone.
LIf the bone conduction earpiece gets dusty
or greasy, clean it with a soft, dry cloth.

Connections
When connecting the AC adaptor to the
base unit, a short beep will be heard. If it is
not heard, check the connections.
Note:
LNever install telephone wiring during a
lightning storm.
LThe AC adaptor must remain connected
at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor to
feel warm during use.)
LThe AC adaptor should be connected to a
vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to a
ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the weight
of the adaptor may cause it to become
disconnected.
LThe unit will not work during a power
failure. We therefore recommend you
also connect a corded-type telephone
(without AC adaptor) to the same
telephone line using a T-adaptor. Your
Panasonic sales shop can offer you more
information about connection possibilities.
Location
LFor maximum distance and noise-free
operation, place your base unit:
– away from electrical appliances such as
TVs, radios, personal computers or
other phones.
– in a convenient, high and central
location.
Battery
installation/replacement
Important:

cloth.
LWhen installing the batteries, avoid
touching the battery ends (S, T) or the

LThe charge indicator lights up when the
handset is placed on the base unit.
LThe pictured model is KX-TG7160.
Note:
LIt is normal for the handset to feel warm
during charging.
LIf you want to use the unit immediately,
charge the batteries for at least 15
minutes.
LClean the charge contacts of the handset

(included batteries)
Note:
LIt is normal for batteries not to reach full
capacity at the initial charge. Maximum
battery performance is reached after a few
complete cycles of charge/discharge
(use).
LActual battery performance depends on a
combination of how often the handset is in
use and how often it is not in use
(standby).
LBattery operating time may be shortened
over time depending on usage conditions
and ambient temperature.
LEven after the handset is fully charged,
the handset can be left on the base unit
without any ill effect on the batteries.
LThe battery strength may not be displayed
correctly after you replace the batteries. In
this case, place the handset on the base
