1. Read and understand all instructions.

2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the telephone.

3. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

4. Use only the power cord and BATTERY PACK indicated in the Owner’s Manual.

5. Unplug this telephone from the wall outlet before cleaning or replacing the BATTERY PACK. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners on the telephone. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

6. 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.

7. Place this telephone on a stable surface. Serious damage and/or injury may result if the telephone falls.

8. 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.

9. 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.

10. Do not place anything on the power cord. Install the telephone where no one will step or trip on the cord.

11. Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can increase the risk of fire or electric shock.

12. Never push objects through the slots in the telephone. The objects 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.

13. 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.

14. 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. D. If the telephone does not operate normally by following the operating instructions.

Page 11

SSaaffeettyyIInnssttrruuccttiioonns

E. If the telephone has been dropped or the case has been damaged. F. If the telephone exhibits a distinct change in performance.

13. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

3. Do not open or mutilate the BATTERY PACK. 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 BATTERY PACK to prevent shorting the BATTERY PACK with conductive materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The BATTERY PACK or conductor may overheat and cause burns.

5. Charge the BATTERY PACK 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 BATTERY PACK and BATTERY CHARGER.
