4. such as near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub or swimming pool, or in a wet basement or shower.

Do not place this product on an

5. unstable table, shelf, stand or other unstable surfaces.

Avoid placing the telephone system

6. in places with extreme temperature, direct sunlight, or other electrical devices. Protect your phone from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.

Slots and openings in the back or

7. bottom of the telephone base and handset are provided for ventilation. To protect them from overheating, these openings must not be blocked by placing the product on a soft surface such as a bed, sofa or rug. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This product should not be placed in any area where proper ventilation is not provided.

This product should be operated

8. only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply in your home or office, consult your dealer or local power company.

Do not allow anything to rest on

.

the power cord. Do not install this product where the cord may be walked on.

Never push objects of any kind into

10. this product through the slots in the telephone base or handset because they may touch dangerous voltage points or create a short circuit. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

To reduce the risk of electric shock,

11. do not disassemble this product, but take it to an authorized service facility. Opening or removing parts of the telephone base or handset other than specified access doors may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembling can cause electric shock when the product is subsequently used.

Do not overload wall outlets and

1.

extension cords. Unplug this product from the wall

13. outlet and refer servicing to an authorized service facility under the following conditions:

When the power supply cord or

• plug is damaged or frayed.

If liquid has been spilled onto the

• product.

If the product has been exposed

• to rain or water.

If the product does not operate

• normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operation instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and often requires extensive work by an authorized technician to restore the product to normal operation.

If the product has been dropped

• and the telephone base and/or handset has been damaged.

If the product exhibits a distinct

•

change in performance.

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

15. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. Under certain circumstances, a spark may be created when the adapter is plugged into the power outlet, or when the handset is replaced in its cradle. This is a common event associated with the closing of any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone into a power outlet, and should not put a charged handset into the cradle, if the phone is located in an environment containing concentrations of flammable or flame-supporting gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark in such an environment could create a fire or explosion. Such environments might include: medical use of oxygen without adequate ventilation; industrial gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc.

16. Only put the handset of your telephone next to your ear when it is in normal talk mode.

17. The power adapters are intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:

Pacemaker patients

Should keep wireless telephones at

• least six inches from the pacemaker. Should NOT place wireless telephones

• directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON. Should use the wireless telephone at

• the ear opposite the pacemaker.

WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless telephones.

About cordless telephones

Privacy: The same features

•

that make a cordless telephone convenient create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the cordless handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that the

cordless telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.

Electrical power: The telephone

•

base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the cordless handset if the telephone base is unplugged, switched off or if the electrical power is interrupted.

Potential TV interference: Some

•

cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to televisions and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR often reduces or eliminates the interference.

Rechargeable batteries: Exercise

•

care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conducting material such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger.

Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable

• batteries: Dispose of these batteries

in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture the battery. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

It may be a wiring problem. If you

• have changed your telephone service to digital service from a cable company or a VoIP service provider, the telephone line may need to be rewired to allow all existing telephone jacks to work. Contact your cable/VoIP service provider for more information.

Operating range

This cordless telephone operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and telephone base can communicate over only a certain distance - which can vary with the locations of the telephone base and handset, the weather, and the layout of your home or office.

When the handset is out of range, the handset displays Out of range or and no pwr at base alternately.

If there is a call while the handset is out of range, it may not ring, or if it does ring, the call may not connect well when you press /HOME or /CELL. Move closer to the telephone base, and then press /HOME or /CELL to answer the call. If the handset moves out of range during a telephone conversation, there may be interference. To improve reception, move closer to the telephone base.

Bluetooth

Your new DS6771 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology has the following features:

Pair and connect up to a maximum

• of two cell phones with the telephone base to make and receive cell calls. Only one cell phone can be active on a call at a time.

Make and receive calls using your

• cell phone plan while utilizing the ease and comfort of your home telephone system.

Receive phonebook entries from your

• cell phone.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Refer to the user's manual of your

• Bluetooth enabled cell phone for more information about how that device uses Bluetooth connectivity.

Bluetooth wireless technology

• operates within a short range (a maximum of approximately 15 feet) from the telephone base. Keep connected cell phones within this range. For optimal performance, place your cell phone next to the telephone base while using the

DS6771 cell line.

If your cell phone has poor reception

• in your home, the DS6771 cannot improve the reception. However, if there is a location in your house with better reception, you can leave your cell phone at that location while using the DS6771 cell line.

If you experience poor sound quality,

• place your cell phone closer to the DS6771 to ensure strong Bluetooth signal strength. Make sure there are no physical obstacles between the DS6771 and the cell phone, such as large furniture or thick walls.

Charge your cell phone while it

• is connected to the telephone base. Your cell phone's battery will discharge faster while it is connected to the telephone base via Bluetooth wireless technology.

Monitor your cell phone's usage

• because minutes are deducted from your cellular plan for the duration of all cell calls.

Refer to Bluetooth setup to learn how to set up and manage your Bluetooth enabled devices. Refer to Telephone operation on how to operate your Bluetooth devices with your new DS6771 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology. Refer to Frequently asked questions if you experience difficulty using the telephone system.
