Wipe the base station and handset with a damp cloth (do not use solvents) or an anti-

static cloth. Never use a dry cloth. This can cause static. 

If the handset should come into contact with liquid, on no account switch the device 

on. Remove the battery immediately.
Allow the liquid to drain out of the device, and then pat all parts of the device dry.
Keep the handset with the battery removed in a warm, dry place for at least 72 hours. 

In many cases, you will then be able to use it again.

If you have any questions about the use of your phone, you can contact us 24/7 at
