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 base and charger(s)(if included) are NOT waterproof: Do not use or
place the base or 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 base or charger falls into the water, unplug the AC adapter before
removing it from the water.
Wipe excess water off of the handset before returning it to the base or
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
possible special disposal instructions.
Do not place the handset in any charging cradle without the battery installed
and the battery cover securely in place.
