LDo not overload power outlets and extension cords. This can result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
LCompletely insert the AC adaptor/power plug into the power outlet. Failure to do so may cause electric shock and/or excessive heat resulting in a fire.
LRegularly remove any dust, etc. from the AC adaptor/power plug by pulling it from the power outlet, then wiping with a dry cloth. Accumulated dust may cause an insulation defect from moisture, etc. resulting in a fire.
LUnplug the product from power outlets if it emits smoke, an abnormal smell, or makes an unusual noise. These conditions can cause fire or electric shock. Confirm that smoke has stopped emitting and contact an authorised service centre.
LUnplug from power outlets and never touch the inside of the product if its casing has been broken open.
LNever touch the plug with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.
Installation
LTo prevent the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose the product to rain or any type of moisture.
LDo not place or use this product near automatically controlled devices such as automatic doors and fire alarms. Radio waves emitted from this product may cause such devices to malfunction resulting in an accident.
LDo not allow the AC adaptor or telephone line cord to be excessively pulled, bent or placed under heavy objects.
LIt is advised not to use the equipment at a refuelling point. Users are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
Operating safeguards
LUnplug the product from power outlets before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
L Do not disassemble the product.
LDo not spill liquids (detergents, cleansers, etc.) onto the telephone line cord plug, or allow it to become wet at all. This may cause a fire. If the telephone line cord plug becomes wet, immediately pull it from the telephone wall socket, and do not use.
Medical
LConsult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers or hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF (radio frequency) energy. (The product operates in the frequency range of 1.88 GHz to 1.90 GHz, and the RF transmission power is 250 mW (max.).)
LDo not use the product in health care facilities if any regulations posted in the area instruct you not to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

LExercise care when handling the batteries. Do not allow conductive materials such as rings, bracelets, or keys to touch the batteries, otherwise a short circuit may cause the batteries and/or the conductive material to overheat and cause burns.
LCharge the batteries provided with or identified for use with this product only, in accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this manual.
LOnly use a compatible base unit (or charger) to charge the batteries. Do not tamper with the base unit (or charger). Failure to follow these instructions may cause the batteries to swell or explode.
General notices
LPlease ensure that a separate telephone, not dependent on local power, is available for emergency use.
LThis equipment will be inoperable when mains power fails.
LWhen a failure occurs which results in the internal parts becoming accessible, disconnect the power supply cord immediately and return this unit to an authorised service centre.
LTo minimise the possibility of lightning damage, when you know that a thunderstorm is coming, we recommend that you:
–Unplug the telephone line cord from the phone socket.
–Unplug the AC adaptor from the AC power outlet.
LNo “000” or other calls can be made from this device during a mains power failure.
LThe earpiece on the handset is magnetised and may retain small metallic objects.
