using your cordless telephone equipment.
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the telephone.
3. Unplug this telephone from the wall outlet before cleaning or replacing the BATTERYPACK. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners on the telephone. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
4. Do not use this telephone near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement,
or near a swimming pool.
5. Place this telephone on a stable surface. Serious damage and/or injury may result if the telephone falls.
6. Do not cover the slots and openings on this telephone. This telephone should not be placed near or over a radiator or heat
register. This telephone should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
7. Operate this telephone using the electrical voltage as stated on the BASE UNIT of the telephone or in the Owner’s Manual. If
you are not sure of the voltage in your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
8. Do not place anything on the power cord. Install the telephone where no one will step or trip on the cord.
9. Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can increase the risk of fire or electric shock.
10. Never push objects of any kind through the slots in the telephone. They could touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts
that could result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the telephone.
11.To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this telephone. Take it to a qualified service representative when
service or repair work is required. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect
reassembly can cause electric shock when the telephone is subsequently used.
12. Unplug this telephone from the wall outlet and consult a qualified service representative in any of the following situations:
A. When the power supply cord is frayed or damaged.
B. If liquid has been spilled into the telephone.
C. If the telephone has been exposed to rain or water.

Battery Safety
CAUTION:
Danger of explosion if the BATTERYPACK is replaced with incorrect type. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type. To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, read and follow these instructions:
1. Use only the following type and size of BATTERYPACK:

disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the BATTERYPACK. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin.
Electrolyte may be toxic if swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling the BATTERYPACK to prevent shorting the BATTERYPACK with conductive materials such as rings,
bracelets, and keys. The BATTERYPACK or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
5. Charge the BATTERYPACK provided with (or identified for use with) this telephone only in accordance with the instructions and
limitations specified in this manual.
6. Observe proper polarity orientation between the BATTERYPACK and BATTERY CHARGER.
