Safety notes
Notes on mobile unit use
lDo not use mobile units in damp environments (bathroom/shower). The
units are not splash proof.
lDo not use the mobile unit in environments where there is danger of
explosion.
lMake sure that the telephone is at least one meter away from any

even if you remove the batteries.

limited functions.
