When using your telephone, these basic safety
precautions should always be followed to
reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury.

1. Never push objects of any kind into your

They may touch dangerous voltage points
resulting in risk of fire or shock.

2. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
disassemble your telephone. Take it to a
qualified service technician when repair work
is required. Opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other
risks. Incorrect reassembly could cause
electric shock when the unit is subsequently
used.

3. Unplug this unit from the telephone jack and
wall outlet, and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following
conditions:

• When the power supply cord, plug, or
adaptor is damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled into the product.

• If the product has been exposed to rain or
water.

• If the product does not operate properly
after instructions have been followed.

• If the product has been dropped, or the
cabinet appears damaged.

• If the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance.

4. Avoid using your telephone during a
lightning storm. There may be a remote risk
of electric shock from lightning. If possible,
unplug the AC adaptor and telephone cord
for the duration of the lightning storm.

5. Never dispose of batteries in a fire. There is
a serious risk of explosion and / or the
release of highly toxic chemicals. Dispose of
used batteries in accordance with local
regulations.

Important Notices

1. When going on holiday or not using the
phone for a long period of time, please
disconnect the mains power from the base

has not been used, the operational life of the
battery may be reduced. To recover the full
storage capacity of the battery, recharge the
battery for a minimum of 10 hours and use
until it is fully discharged. This process needs
