LNever use more force than necessary when
inserting/removing the SIM card.
LBe careful not to touch the cut surface of the
SIM card when removing it. You may hurt
your hand or fingers.
LDo not damage, carelessly touch, or short-
circuit the IC. Data might be lost or
malfunction may result.
General notices
LThis equipment shall not be set to make
automatic calls to the “111” Emergency
Service.
LThe earpiece on the handset is magnetised
and may retain small metallic objects.
Important safety
instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For best performance
Base unit location/avoiding noise
The base unit and other compatible Panasonic
units use radio waves to communicate with
each other.
LFor maximum coverage and noise-free
communications, place your base unit:

near a window;
– at a convenient, high, and central
location with no obstructions between
the handset and base unit in an indoor
environment;
– away from electronic appliances such as
TVs, radios, personal computers,
wireless devices, or other phones.
LCoverage and voice quality depends on the
local environmental conditions.
LIf the reception for a base unit location is not
satisfactory, move the base unit to another
location for better reception.
Environment
LKeep the product away from electrical noise
generating devices, such as fluorescent
lamps and motors.
LThe product should be kept free from
excessive smoke, dust, high temperature,
and vibration.
LThe product should not be exposed to direct
sunlight.

SAR
THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL
GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES and the requirements of the EU
Directive 1999/5/EC.
Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed not to exceed radio
wave exposure limits recommended by
international guidelines. These guidelines
were developed by the independent scientific
organisation ICNIRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the protection of
all persons, regardless of age and health.
These guidelines also form the basis of
international regulations and standards on RF
Exposure.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit for wireless devices is 2
W/kg. The highest SAR values for this device
were 0.984 W/kg (for Base unit) and 0.00142
W/kg (for Handset) when tested in the worst-
case scenario for compliance against the set
standard i.e. user is closest to the unit.
As SAR is measured utilizing the devices
highest transmitting power the actual SAR of
this base unit while operating is typically below
that indicated above. This is due to automatic
changes to the power level of the device to
ensure it only uses the minimum level required
to communicate with the network.
The World Health Organization has stated that
present scientific information does not indicate
the need for any special precautions for the
use of wireless devices. They note that if you
want to reduce your exposure then you can do
so by limiting the length of calls.
