Note:
Setting up the base unit
Connecting the AC adaptor and
telephone line cord
Connect the telephone line cord until it
clicks into the base unit (A) and telephone
line socket (B). Connect the AC adaptor
cord by pressing the plug firmly (C).
L Use only the included Panasonic AC
adaptor PQLV19AL.
C
L The AC adaptor must remain connected
at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor
to feel warm during use.)
L The AC adaptor should be connected to
a vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to
a ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the
weight of the adaptor may cause it to
become disconnected.
L The unit will not work during a power
failure. We recommend connecting a
standard telephone to the same
telephone line or to the same telephone
jack using a telephone double adaptor.
L The unit is not designed to be used with
rotary (pulse dialling) services.
If you subscribe to an ADSL service
Please attach a noise filter (contact your
ADSL provider) to the telephone line
between the base unit and the telephone
line socket in the event of the following:
– Noise is heard during conversations.
– Caller ID features (page 25) do not
function properly.

Note:
L Battery operating time may be
shortened over time depending on
usage conditions and surrounding
temperature.
L Battery power is consumed whenever
the handset is off the base unit or
charger, even when the handset is not in
use. Hence the longer you leave the
handset off the base unit or charger, the
less time you may actually talk using the
handset.
L After the handset is fully charged,
displaying “Charge completed”, it
may be left on the base unit (or charger)
without any ill effect on the battery.
L The battery level may not be displayed
correctly after you replace the battery. In
this case, place the handset on the base
unit (or charger) and let charge for 6
hours.
