R

Do not mix old and new batteries.

R

Do not open or mutilate the batteries.
Released electrolyte from the batteries is

identified for use with this product only, in
accordance with the instructions and
limitations specified in this manual.

R

Only use a compatible base unit (or
charger) to charge the batteries. Do not
tamper with the base unit (or charger).
Failure to follow these instructions may
cause the batteries to swell or explode.

basement or near a swimming pool.

2. Avoid using a telephone (other than a

cordless type) during an electrical storm.

There may be a remote risk of electric
shock from lightning.

3. Do not use the telephone to report a gas

leak in the vicinity of the leak.

disposal instructions.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

For best performance

Base unit location/avoiding noise

The base unit and other compatible Panasonic
units use radio waves to communicate with
each other.

R

For maximum coverage and noise-free
communications, place your base unit:
– at a convenient, high, and central

location with no obstructions between
the handset and base unit in an indoor
environment.

– away from electronic appliances such as

TVs, radios, personal computers,
wireless devices, or other phones.

– facing away from radio frequency

transmitters, such as external antennas
of mobile phone cell stations. (Avoid
putting the base unit on a bay window or
near a window.)

R

Coverage and voice quality depends on the
local environmental conditions.

R

If the reception for a base unit location is
not satisfactory, move the base unit to
another location for better reception.

Environment

R

Keep the product away from electrical noise
generating devices, such as fluorescent
lamps and motors.

R

The product should be kept free from
excessive smoke, dust, high temperature,
and vibration.

R

The product should not be exposed to
direct sunlight.

R
