System does not receive caller ID when on a call.
f Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting features
from your telephone service provider. Caller ID features work
only if both you and the caller are in areas oering caller ID
service, and if both telephone service providers use compatible
equipment.
System screens all my incoming home calls.
f You may have set Smart call blocker to screen calls without
numbers and uncategorized calls. The telephone asks callers
to announce their names or press the pound key (#). We
recommend that you add the phone numbers of your family
members and friends, and desired businesses to your directory
or allow list, or add their names to the star name list. This will
avoid Smart call blocker to screen their calls.
My telephone does not screen incoming cell calls.
f The screening feature of Smart call blocker is applicable to
home calls only. All incoming cell calls will get through and
ring. You can block calls of a cell phone number by adding the
number to the block list.
While screening a home call, the telephone suddenly stops
screening and connects to the call.
f Another handset may have picked up the screening call.f If you have other telephone system sharing the same telephone
line, and someone picks up the call on the other telephone
system while the screening is in progress, the screening process
will be terminated and connect you to the caller.
My telephone block calls from someone I know.
f You may have saved the caller’s number in your block list. If yes,
remove the number from the list.

Especially about cordless telephones
f 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.
f 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.
f 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 oen reduce or eliminate the
interference.
f 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.
f 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.

Spéciquement en rapport avec les téléphones sans l
f Condentialité : Les mêmes caractéristiques qui rendent les téléphones sans l
si pratiques créent également des restrictions. Les appels téléphoniques sont
transmis entre le socle du téléphone et le combiné par le biais d’ondes radio, et
il se peut que vos conversations téléphoniques soient interceptées par d’autres
équipements de réception d’ondes radio au sein de la portée du téléphone sans
l. Pour cette raison, vous ne devez pas considérer les conversations sur un
téléphone sans l comme étant aussi condentielles que celles d’un téléphone à
cordon.
f Alimentation électrique : La base de ce téléphone sans l doit être branchée à
une prise de courant électrique fonctionnelle. La prise électrique ne doit pas être
contrôlée par un interrupteur mural. Les appels ne peuvent pas être eectués à
partir du combiné si la base n’est pas branchée, si elle est hors fonction ou si le
courant électrique est coupé.
f Interférences potentielles aux téléviseurs : Certains téléphones sans l
fonctionnent sur des fréquences pouvant causer des interférences aux
téléviseurs et magnétoscopes. Pour réduire ou prévenir de tels parasites,
ne pas déposer la base du téléphone sans l à proximité d’un téléviseur ou
magnétoscope, ni directement sur celui-ci. Si votre téléviseur ache des
interférences, éloignez le téléphone sans l de celui-ci an de réduire les
parasites.
f Piles rechargeables : Ce produit comporte des piles rechargeables à l’hydrure
métallique de nickel. Usez de prudence lorsque vous manipulez de telles piles et
veillez à ne pas les court-circuiter avec des matériaux conducteurs, tels que des
bagues, bracelets et clés. La pile ou le conducteur peut surchauer et vous brûler.
Respectez la polarité adéquate entre les piles et le chargeur de piles.
f Piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel : Jetez ces piles de manière
sécuritaire. N’incinérez pas et ne peercez pas les piles. Comme pour les autres
piles du même type, si elles sont brûlées ou percées, des matières corrosives
peuvent s’en échapper, ce qui risque de causer des brûlures ou autres blessures
corporelles.
Le sceau de l’organisme de recyclage RBRCMD sur les piles à l’hydrure
métallique de nickel signie que le fabricant de cet appareil participe
volontairement au programme industriel visant à reprendre et
recycler ce type de piles lorsqu’elles ne servent plus, au sein du

Stimulateurs cardiaques (ne s’applique qu’aux téléphones sans l numériques) :
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:
f Ils doivent tenir le téléphone sans l à une distance d’au moins six pouces du
stimulateur cardiaque.
f Ils ne doivent PAS placer le téléphone sans l directement sur le stimulateur
cardiaque, tel que dans une poche de chemise, lorsque celui-ci est en fonction.
f Ils doivent utiliser le téléphone sans l en l’appuyant sur l’oreille qui se trouve
dans la direction opposée au stimulateur cardiaque.
L’étude eectuée par l’organisme WRS n’a pas identié de risque pour les
détenteurs de simulateurs cardiaques causé par les gens qui utilisent un téléphone
sans l à proximité de ceux-ci.
Mode ECO
Lorsque le socle communique avec le combiné, le mode ECO sera activé
automatiquement. Ceci réduit la consommation d’énergie selon la distance entre le
socle du téléphone et le combiné.
