General product care
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

that should retain its luster for many years.
Clean it only with a dry non-abrasive cloth.
