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�
When the battery in this unit has reached the end of its useful life, please dispose of it according
to your local environmental laws and regulations� For information about recycling cell phone
