Operating range

This cordless telephone operates with the 

maximum power allowed by the Federal 

Communications Commission (FCC). Even 

so, this handset and telephone base can 

communicate over only a certain distance 

- which can vary with the locations of the 

telephone base and handset, the weather, and 

the layout of your home or office. 
When the handset is out of range, the handset 

displays 

Out of range or no pwr at base

range, it may not ring, or if it does ring, the call 

may not connect well when you press

 to answer the call. If the handset moves out 

of range during a telephone conversation, there 

may be interference. To improve reception, 

move closer to the telephone base.

ECO mode

This power conserving technology reduces 

power consumption for optimal battery 

performance. The ECO mode activates 

automatically whenever the handset is 

synchronized with the telephone base.

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 not install the 

telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.

Electrical storms

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power 

surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your 

own safety, take caution when using electrical 

appliances during storms.

Cleaning your telephone

Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that 

should retain its luster for many years. Clean it 

only with a dry non-abrasive cloth. Do not use 

dampened cloth or cleaning solvents of any kind.

Important safety instructions

When using your telephone equipment, basic 

safety precautions should always be followed to 

reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury, 

including the following:

Read and understand all instructions.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked 

on the product.
Unplug this product from the wall outlet 

before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol 

cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
