Unplug the base from the power outlet and telephone jack and consult a qualified service
representative if any of the following situations occur:
- Liquid has been spilled into the base or the base has been
exposed to rain or water.
- The base produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises.
- The power cord is frayed or damaged.
- The base has been dropped or the housing damaged.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the base where people may
walk on the power cord.
This base must only be connected to a 120 V, 60 Hz outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of
outlet will damage the base and invalidate the warranty.
Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the equipment. This could create a
risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the equipment that you cannot remove,
unplug the base and consult a qualified service representative.
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
Never touch bare telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be
a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Battery
Use only the battery specified in this manual. Use only the provided charger to charge the
battery.
Do not open or mutilate the battery pack. Corrosive fluid may leak out and cause injury or
burns to the eyes and skin. The fluid may be toxic if swallowed. In case of contact with eyes,
flush with clean water (do not rub), and seek medical attention immediately.
Do not store or carry the battery with other metal objects such as keys or pins. These may
short the battery and cause it to overheat.
Do not allow the battery to become wet.
Do not dispose of the battery in a fire or heat the battery. The battery may explode.
Health care facilities and equipment
Radio frequency energy emitted from the cordless handset equipment may cause medical
equipment to malfunction. Verify that any personal medical equipment you are using is
adequately shielded from external radio frequency energy before using the cordless handset
equipment. Do not use the cordless handset equipment in health care facilities where such
use is prohibited.

1. Installation
When the battery needs charging, LOW BATTERY will appear in the display
and you will hear beeps during a phone conversation. Place the cordless
handset in the base and let it charge.
Note: If the battery is extremely low, nothing may appear in the display during
the first several minutes that the cordless handset is in the base. The battery
will begin to charge normally after several minutes.
