About the cordless telephone
Each time you place the handset on the base unit, a random security
code is automatically assigned between the base unit and the handset.
(The IN USE lamp flashes during the initialization, then turns off when
the initialization is complete.) Only a handset which has this unique
security code can make calls through the base unit. This system
prevents the possibility of other cordless telephone handsets making
calls through your base unit.

• Do not drop the unit as a malfunction
may result.
On cleaning
