Important Safety Instructions!

When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to
persons, including the following:

•

The charger is NOT waterproof: Do not use or place the charger near
water (e.g., near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
basement or near a swimming pool).

•

If the charger falls into the water, unplug the AC adapter before removing it
from the water.

Wipe excess water off the handset before returning it to the charger.

•

Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical
storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

•

Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual. Do not
dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local codes for

Understanding the Waterproof Handset

The handset complies with JIS7 water submersion specifications.
It can remain submerged under 1m of water for up to 30 minutes
without damage or loss of functionality. If the handset falls into water,
just remove it; you can continue using the handset as normal.

The handset will still receive calls even if it is under water, but you
probably won't be able to hear the ringer or the earpiece. To avoid any
accidents, do not try to use the handset while it is still under water.

If you notice that the sound is distorted after your handset is submerged
in water, there might still be water around the speaker and microphone.
Just shake the handset to clear the water, and the sound should return
to normal. Don't place the handset where it will be subjected to

direct sunlight for long periods of time.

Installing Your Phone

Charge the Battery

The handset's rechargeable battery is already installed.
Before you can charge the battery, you have to power it on.

1)

Remove the cardboard spacer.

Press the power on/off (activation) pin according to the

2)
directions on the label.

Remove the label once the handset is powered on.

3)

Save the power on/off pin in case you need to change the
handset's power status later (i.e., to power off the handset
when it will not be used for a long time).
Use the plastic power on/off pin or a blunt-tipped object
like an uncurled paper clip to press the power on/off toggle
through the rubber seal. Do not use a sharp object; sharp
objects might puncture the rubber seal and jeopardize the
handset's waterproof status.

Connect the AC adaptor to the charger's DC IN 9V jack and

4)

set the cord into the notch. (This adaptor might already be
connected.)

Plug the other end of the adaptor into a standard 240V AC

5)
power outlet.
