Keep the battery dry. Moisture on the battery could cause the
battery to overheat, emit smoke or corrode.
Do not use or leave the battery in direct sunlight or in hot places
such as in a car on a hot day. This could cause the battery to leak
fluids and overheat, and could impair the performance or reduce the
lifetime of the battery.
Prohibited
Always use the AC adapter with a domestic power supply (eg.
220 V AC). The use of other voltages could cause an electric
shock, fire, or damage to the AC adapter.
Never short-circuit the AC adapter plug as this could cause an
electric shock, fire, smoke, or damage to the AC adapter.
Do not use the AC adapter if the power cord is damaged (core wiring
exposed or cut, etc.) as this could cause a fire or electric shock.
Clean off any dust on the power plug as this could cause a fire.
Do not place containers of water (jugs, etc.) near the AC adapter.
Water on the AC adapter could cause overheating, an electric
shock or damage to the devices.
If any water or other liquid gets into the AC adapter, immediately
unplug the power cord. Failure to do so could cause the AC adapter
to overheat or catch fire, or cause an electric shock or damage to
the AC adapter.
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the AC adapter as this
could cause injury, an electric shock, fire, or damage to the AC
adapter.
Do not use the AC adapter in places with a lot of water vapour,
such as a bathroom, as this could cause an electric shock.

General Notes on Cleaning and Maintenance
Always unplug the AC adapter before performing any cleaning or
maintenance. Failure to do so could cause an electric shock.
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord or attempt to modify
the power cord as this could cause an electric shock or fire.
Always grasp the AC adapter itself when you unplug the AC
adapter. Pulling on the power cord can damage the cord and cause
an electric shock or fire.
Prohibited
Do not splash water on the battery, phone or AC adapter.
The mobile phone, battery and AC adapter are not manufactured to waterproof
specifications. Do not use them in places where there is a lot of water vapour,
such as a bathroom, and take care to protect them from rain.
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the battery, phone and AC adapter.
Wiping the battery, phone or AC adapter with a wet cloth could cause faults.
Also, solvents such as alcohol, thinners or benzine may remove the printed
lettering on the phone or cause discoloration.
Wipe the AC adapter plug clean occasionally with a dry cloth.
Soiled AC adapter plug result in a poor electrical connection which can cause
power loss. This can also prevent the AC adapter from recharging the battery
correctly.

R12-PHS_Caution.p6 7/24/00, 2:15 PM7
viii
Store the battery in a cool, well-ventilated location that is not exposed to direct
sunlight.
The battery has a limited life.
However, the life of any battery is limited, and the amount of time for which a
battery can be used between recharges gradually decreases. If repeated
recharging fails to restore the battery's functionality, the battery life has expired
and should be replaced with a new battery of the specified type.
Do not dispose used batteries with ordinary household garbage.
Apply insulating tape to the battery terminals before you dispose of the battery.
Check with the relevant local authorities for the correct method for disposing of
your battery.
To avoid malfunctions, do not charge the battery in the following places:
• In direct sunlight
• Where the ambient temperature is below 5°C or above 35°C
• In humid or dusty locations or places subject to vibrations (this could cause
malfunctions)
• Near an appliance such as a TV or radio (this could impair picture or sound
quality).
