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

Read and understand all instructions.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked 
on the product.
Unplug this product from the wall outlet 
before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol 
cleaners. Use a dry non-abrasive cloth for 
cleaning.
Do not use this product near water such as 
near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, 
laundry tub or a swimming pool, or in a wet 
basement or shower.
Do not place this product on an unstable 
table, shelf, stand or other unstable surfaces.
Slots and openings in the back or 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 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 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, 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 extension 
cords.

Unplug this product from the wall 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.

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

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 wall 
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 wall 
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.

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

The power adapter is 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.

Use only the battery provided or equivalent.  
To order a replacement, visit our website at  
XXXWUFDIQIPOFTDPN or call  
. In Canada, go to  
XXXWUFDIDBOBEBDPN or call  

Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. Check  
with local waste management codes for 
special disposal instructions.

Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released 
electrolyte is corrosive and may cause burns 
or injury to the eyes or skin. The electrolyte 
may be toxic if swallowed.

Exercise care in handling batteries in order 
not to create a short circuit with conductive 
materials.

Charge the battery provided with or identified 
for use with this product only in accordance 
with the instructions and limitations specified in 
this manual.

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:

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.

1SJWBDZ 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.

&MFDUSJDBMQPXFSThe 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.

1PUFOUJBM57JOUFSGFSFODFSome 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.

3FDIBSHFBCMFCBUUFSJFTExercise 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.

/JDLFMNFUBMIZESJEFSFDIBSHFBCMF
CBUUFSJFT 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

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

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

with the telephone base.  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Bluetooth wireless technology operates within 
a short range (a maximum of approximately 
30 feet). When you pair a Bluetooth cell phone 
to the telephone base, place your Bluetooth 
cell phone closer to the telephone base to 
maintain sufficient signal strength. For optimal 
performance, keep your cell phone within 15 feet 
of the telephone base while using the cell line.
