Bone conduction earpiece (KX-TG7180 only)

The handset features a bone conduction earpiece that uses vibrations to create sound during your telephone conversations. For proper operation press the bone conduction earpiece against your face near the ear. Normally, sound enters the ear canal and vibrates the eardrum. People feel the vibration within the inner ear and comprehend it as it is received by the auditory nerve.

Sound

Bone conduction earpiece

External ear

Middle ear

Place the bone conduction earpiece against your face (not your ear). Try different locations to find which location works best. Start with the temple area.

Auditory

nerve

Inner ear

Note:

L Do not place the bone conduction

earpiece on a hearing aid. Howling or other interference may be heard.

L The effectiveness of the bone conduction

earpiece will vary by the type and degree of hearing loss of the user.

TG7160-7180E(e).book Page 9 Thursday, July 27, 2006 12:45 PM

L As sound is generated by vibration, users

with normal hearing can use the handset by placing the bone conduction earpiece against the ear, as an ordinary telephone.

L If the bone conduction earpiece gets dusty

or greasy, clean it with a soft, dry cloth.

Connections

When connecting the AC adaptor to the base unit, a short beep will be heard. If it is not heard, check the connections.

Hook

(220–240 V, 50 Hz)

To telephone network

Use only the included AC adaptor and telephone line cord.

Note:

L Never install telephone wiring during a

lightning storm.

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 therefore recommend you

also connect a corded-type telephone (without AC adaptor) to the same telephone line using a T-adaptor. Your Panasonic sales shop can offer you more information about connection possibilities.

Preparation

– away from electrical appliances such as

TVs, radios, personal computers or other phones.

– in a convenient, high and central

location.

Charge contact

L The pictured model is KX-TG7160.

Note:

L It is normal for the handset to feel warm

during charging.

L If you want to use the unit immediately,

charge the batteries for at least 15 minutes.

L Clean the charge contacts of the handset

and base unit with a soft, dry cloth once a month, otherwise the batteries may not charge properly. Clean more often if the unit is exposed to grease, dust, or high humidity.

Note:

L It is normal for batteries not to reach full

capacity at the initial charge. Maximum battery performance is reached after a few complete cycles of charge/discharge (use).

L Actual battery performance depends on a

combination of how often the handset is in use and how often it is not in use (standby).

L Battery operating time may be shortened

over time depending on usage conditions and ambient temperature.

L Even after the handset is fully charged,

the handset can be left on the base unit without any ill effect on the batteries.

L The battery strength may not be displayed

correctly after you replace the batteries. In this case, place the handset on the base unit and charge for at least 7 hours.
