This product requires an electrical supply of 100-240 volts AC. In case of power failure,
the communication can be lost.
The voltage on the network is classied as TNV-3 (Telecommunication Network Voltages), as dened in the standard EN
60950.
Warning
The Electrical network is classied as hazardous. The only way to power down the charger is to unplug the
power supply from the electrical outlet. Ensure that the electrical outlet is always easily accessible.
To avoid damage or malfunction
Caution
Use only the power supply listed in the user
instructions.
• Use only the batteries listed in the user instructions.
• Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect
type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
• Always use the cables provided with the product.
Do not allow the charging contacts or the battery to
come into contact with metal objects.
• Do not let small metal objects come into contact with
the product. This can deteriorate audio quality and
damage the product.
• Metallic objects may be retained if placed near or on
the handset receiver.
• Do not use the product in places where there are
explosive hazards.
Do not open the handset, base station or charger as
you could be exposed to high voltages.
For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet shall
be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
• Handsfree activation could suddenly increase the
volume in the earpiece to a very high level: make sure
the handset is not too close to your ear.
This equipment is not designed to make emergency
calls when the power fails. An alternative has to be
made available to allow emergency calls.
• Do not allow the product to come into contact with
liquids.

ammonia, benzene, or abrasives as these may harm
the set.
• Do not expose the phone to excessive heat caused by
heating equipment or direct sunlight.
• Do not drop your phone or allow objects to fall on
your phone.
• Active mobile phones in the vicinity may cause
interference.
When using the phone as a baby monitor
Caution
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
• Make sure the baby unit and the cord are always out of
reach of the baby (at least 1 metre/3 feet away).
• Keep the parent unit at least 1.5 metres/5 feet away
from the baby unit to prevent acoustic feedback.
Never place the baby unit inside the baby’s bed or
playpen.
Never cover the parent unit and the baby unit with
anything (e.g. a towel or blanket). Always make sure the cooling vents of the baby unit are free.
• Take every precaution to make sure that your baby can
sleep safely .
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
• If you place the parent unit next to a transmitter or
other DECT appliance (e.g. a DECT telephone or wireless router for the internet), the connection with
the baby unit may be lost. Move the baby monitor further away from the other wireless appliances until the connection is restored.
• This baby monitor is intended as an aid. It is not a
substitute for responsible and proper adult supervision and should not be used as such.
