Maintenance

Taking care of your telephone

Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be treated with care.

Avoid rough treatment

Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.

Avoid water

Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not

install the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.

Electrical storms

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using

electrical appliances during storms.

Cleaning your telephone

Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened

with water or mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.

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.

The RBRC

seal

The RBRC

seal on the nickel-metal hydride battery indicates that VTech Communications, Inc. is voluntarily participating in

an industry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful lives, when taken out of service within the

United States and Canada.

The RBRC

program provides a convenient alternative to placing used nickel-metal hydride batteries into the trash or municipal

waste, which may be illegal in your area.

VTech’s participation in RBRC

makes it easy for you to drop off the spent battery at local retailers participating in the RBRC

program or at authorized VTech product service centers. Please call

for information on Ni-MH battery recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area. VTech’s

involvement in this program is part of its commitment to protecting our environment and conserving natural resources.

•

Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or standing in water. If the telephone

base should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE

CORD FROM THE WALL. Then remove the telephone by the unplugged cords.
