Introduction
For best performance
Base unit location/avoiding noise
The base unit and other compatible
Panasonic units use radio waves to
communicate with each other.
For maximum distance and noise-free
operation, we recommend the following:
L Placing the product away from electrical
appliances.
L Placing the base unit in a HIGH and
CENTRAL location with no obstructions
such as walls.
L Raising the antennas vertically.
L If you use the handset near a microwave
oven which is being used, noise may be
heard. Move away from the microwave
oven and closer to the base unit.
L If you use the handset near another
cordless phone’s base unit, noise may
be heard. Move away from the other
cordless phone’s base unit and closer to
your base unit.
L The product should be kept away from
heat sources such as heaters, kitchen
stoves, etc. It should not be placed in
rooms where the temperature is less
than 5 °C (41 °F) or greater than 40 °C
(104 °F). Damp basements should also
be avoided.
L The maximum calling distance may be
shortened when the product is used in
the following places: Near obstacles
such as hills, tunnels, underground, near
metal objects such as wire fences, etc.
L Operating the product near 5.8 GHz
electrical appliances may cause
interference. Move away from the
electrical appliances.
Routine care

with a soft moist cloth. Do not use
benzine, thinner, or any abrasive
powder.

Note:
L Battery operating time may be

less time you may actually talk using the
handset.
L After the handset is fully charged,

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
