Power Outage
The ability to access emergency service through the phone depends on the base stations being powered. If
there is an interruption in the power supply, Service and Emergency Calling Service dialing will not function
until power is restored. In the case of a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or reconfigure
equipment before using the Service or Emergency Calling Service dialing.
Regulatory Domains
The radio frequency (RF) for the handset is controlled by the base station. The base station is configured for
a specific regulatory domain. If you use this system outside of the specific regulatory domain, the system will
not function properly, and you might violate local regulations.
Health-Care Environments
This product is not a medical device and uses an unlicensed frequency band that is susceptible to interference
from other devices or equipment.
External Devices Usage
The following information applies when you use external devices with the DECT handset.
Cisco recommends the use of good quality external devices (such as headsets) that are shielded against
unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals.
Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as mobile phones or
two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. In these cases, Cisco recommends that you take one or
more of the following actions:
• Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
