Warnings
Your i700 has been carefully designed to give you years of safe, reliable performance. As with
all electrical equipment, however, there are a few basic precautions that you should take to
avoid hurting yourself or damaging the unit:
• Read the instructions in this handbook carefully. Be sure to save it for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the equipment itself.
• Be sure to use only the switching power supply in the package, and ensure that your power source
matches the rating listed for it. If you are not sure, check with your dealer or with your local power
company.
• Avoid strong shocks. Don't use the switching power supply if it has received any hard knocks or looks
damaged in any way; immediately contact an authorised service center.
• Hold your handset firmly. Otherwise it may fall and be damaged.
• Do not operate the phone in an explosive atmosphere.
• Do not use the phone near water, or spill liquid of any kind on it. If you think that liquid has penetrated
the phone, immediately unplug it, dry it with a soft, clean cloth and contact your dealer.
• Respect the environmental conditions. All of the parts of this equipment are designed for indoor use
only. Never expose them to extremely hot or cold temperatures. Don't expose the cordless telephone
to excessive vibrations or dusty, rainy places.
• Never try to disassemble or service the equipment by yourself (aside from the routine maintenance
described in this handbook). Doing so immediately voids the warranty, and you can cause damage
requiring extensive repair work. Always contact your local dealer for assistance.
• Handle the batteries properly. Particularly, strictly follow the directions stated in this guide.
• Never use the phone with non-suitable batteries, and charge them only with the supplied base. The
use of any non-genuine parts can create hazards, electric shocks and other risks, and voids the war-
ranty.
• In case of problems, please refer to this information guide or contact your dealer or the nearest official
service center. Every service operation not provided by official service centers voids the warranty.
• The phone cannot be used to place calls, including emergency calls, under these conditions: during
power failure, if batteries are defective or depleted, or if the keypad is locked.
• Do not use this phone near emergency medical equipment or near people with implanted electrical
devices, such as pacemakers
Additionally, radio signals between the handset and the base can interfere with hearing aids, causing
strong noise.
