Note:

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 floormounted 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.

During a power failure (KX-TH1211/ KX-TH1212)

The unit will not work during a power failure. We recommend connecting a corded-type telephone (without AC adaptor) to the same telephone line or to the same telephone line jack using a Panasonic T-adaptor (page 6). Emergency power can be supplied to the unit by connecting a Panasonic battery back-up power supply noted on page 6.

If you subscribe to a DSL/ADSL service (KX-TH1211/KX-TH1212)

Please attach a DSL/ADSL filter (contact your DSL/ADSL provider) to the telephone line between the base unit and the telephone line jack in the event of the following:

– noise is heard during conversations.

–Caller ID features do not function properly.
