Maintenance

Taking care of your telephone

Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts,

•

so you must treat it with care.
Avoid rough treatment.

•

Place the handset down gently.

•

Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone if

•

you ever need to ship it.

Avoid water

You can damage your telephone if it gets wet. Do not use the

•

handset in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install
the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.

Electrical storms

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to

•

electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when
using electric appliances during storms.

Cleaning your telephone

Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain

•

its luster for many years. Clean it only with a so cloth slightly

dampened with water or mild soap.
Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.

•

Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you
are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into water, DO
NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE
CORDS FROM THE WALL. Pull the unit out by the unplugged cords.

Important safety information

CAUTIONS:

Use only the power adapter provided with this product. To obtain a replacement,

•

visit our website at www.telephones.att.com or call

1 [phone]. In Canada, dial 1 [phone].

Use only the supplied rechargeable battery or replacement battery (model

•

BT183342/BT283342). To order, visit our website at

www.telephones.att.com or call 1 [phone]. In

Canada, dial 1 [phone].

To prevent risk of re or battery explosion, replace with the correct battery type.

•

Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

Especially about cordless telephones

Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create

•

some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base
and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless
telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment
within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think
of cordless telephone conversations as being as private as those on corded
telephones.

Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be

•

connected to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch.
Calls cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base is unplugged,

switched o or if the electrical power is interrupted.

Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies

•

that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near
or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless

telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will oen reduce or eliminate the

interference.
Rechargeable batteries: This product contains nickel-metal hydride rechargeable

•

batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short
circuit with conductive material such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or
conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the
battery and the battery charger.

Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe

•

manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or
punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led

a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless
telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:

Pacemaker patients

Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches from the pacemaker.

•

Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast

•

pocket, when it is turned ON.
Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.

•

WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from
other persons using wireless telephones.

Especially about telephone answering systems

L’organisme ‘Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR)’, une rme de recherche

indépendante, a mené une évaluation pluridisciplinaire des interférences entre

les téléphones sans l portatifs et les stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans

l’organisme. Appuyée par l’Administration des aliments et drogues (FDA) des États-

unis, la rme WTR recommande aux médecins :

Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques

Ils doivent tenir le téléphone sans l à une distance d’au moins six pouces du

•

stimulateur cardiaque.

Ils ne doivent PAS placer le téléphone sans l directement sur le stimulateur
