noise generating devices, such as
fluorescent lamps and motors.
L The product should be kept free from
excessive smoke, dust, high
temperature, and vibration.
L The product should not be exposed to
direct sunlight.
L Do not place heavy objects on top of the
product.
L When you leave the product unused for
a long period of time, unplug the product
from the power outlet.
8

heat sources such as heaters, kitchen
stoves, etc. It should not be placed in
rooms where the temperature is less
than 5 °C or greater than 40 °C. 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

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, even
when the handset is not in use. Hence
the longer you leave the handset off the
base unit, 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 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 and let charge for 7 hours.
