2. Do not dispose of the battery(ies) in fire. They may explode. Check
with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the battery(ies). Released electrolyte is
corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic
if swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with
conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery
or conductor may overheat and cause burns.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION

for use with this product that are not intended to be charged. The
batteries may leak corrosive electrolyte or explode.
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the battery(ies) provided with or identified
for use with this product by heating them. Sudden release of the
battery electrolyte may occur causing burns or irritation to eyes or
skin.
7. When replacing batteries, all batteries should be replaced at the same
time. Mixing fresh and discharged batteries could increase internal
cell pressure and rupture the discharged battery(ies). (Applies to
products employing more than one separately replaceable primary
battery.)
8. when inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity or
direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of batteries can cause
charging, and that may result in leakage or explosion.
9. Remove batteries from this product if the product will not be used for
a long period of time (several months or more) since during this time
the battery could leak in the product.
10. Discard “dead” batteries as soon as possible since “dead” batteries
are more likely to leak in a product.
11. Do not store this product, or the batteries provided with or identified
for use with this product, in high-temperature areas. Batteries that are
stored in afreezerorrefrigeratorforthe purpose of extending shelf life
should be protectedfrom condensation during storage and defrosting.
Batteries should be stabilized at room temperature prior to use after
cold storage.

For further details, proceed to the following pages.
TWO'UNE PHONE
A two-line phone provides you the convenience of accessing two separate telephone
lines (each obtained from the telephone company and having its own phone
number) from one phone. This is generally useful for small businesses, home
-offices, and even for homes that need the convenience of two telephone lines.
To choose a line:
PRESS I LINE 1 I or | LINE 2 |
When Handset is picked up or Speaker button is pressed, a red light above
the button will come on indicating the line in use.
LED LINE-STATUS INDICATORS
Above each Line button is an LED which informs you of the status of each line.
LED STATUS
Solid Red Line in use.
(The Line is currently being used by you [if you’ve lifted
the Handset off hook or activated the Speaker
Button] or by another extension on the same line.)
Flashing Green
Incoming Call.
(This is a visual “ring” indicator to inform you as to
which Line a call is coming in on.)
Flashing Red Line is on Hold.
(See “Hold Function” to terminate.)
DUAL RINGER TONES
In addition to the visual “ring" indicators to tell what line an incoming call is on,
your GE Speakerphone has separate and distinct ringer sounds for Line 1 and
Line 2.
This will allow you to determine (audibly) the line of an incoming call, even if you’re
in another room.
