Introduction

CAUTION:

Installation

LNever install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Introduction

For best performance

Base unit location/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:

LPlacing the product away from electrical appliances.

LPlacing the base unit in a HIGH and CENTRAL location with no obstructions such as walls.

LRaising the antennas vertically.

LIf 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.

LIf 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.

Environment

LKeep the product away from electrical noise generating devices, such as fluorescent lamps and motors.

LThe product should be kept free from excessive smoke, dust, high temperature, and vibration.

LThe product should not be exposed to direct sunlight.

LDo not place heavy objects on top of the product.

LWhen you leave the product unused for a long period of time, unplug the product from the power outlet.

LThe 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.

LThe 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.

LOperating near 5.8 GHz electrical appliances may cause interference. Move away from the electrical appliances.

Routine care

LWipe the outer surface of the product with a soft moist cloth. Do not use benzine, thinner, or any abrasive powder.

Note:

LUse only the included Panasonic AC adaptor PQLV1.

LThe AC adaptor must remain connected at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor to feel warm during use.)

LThe 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.

LThe 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 Panasonic T-adaptor. Emergency power can be supplied to the unit by connecting a Panasonic battery back-up power supply noted on page 10.

Preparation

Note:

LBattery operating time may be shortened over time depending on usage conditions and ambient temperature.

LBattery power is consumed whenever the handset is off the base unit or charger, even when the handset is not in use. The longer you leave the handset off the base unit or charger, the shorter you can actually talk using the handset.

LOnce the battery is fully charged, you do not have to charge it again until “Recharge battery” is displayed or 7flashes. This will maximize the battery life.

Battery replacement

Important:

LUse only the rechargeable Panasonic battery noted on page 10.

1 Press the notch of the handset cover firmly, and slide it in the direction of the arrow.

2 Replace the old battery with a new one, and close the cover (page 16).

Attention:

A nickel metal hydride battery that is recyclable powers the product you have purchased.

Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to recycle this battery.
