pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration, WTR recommends
to physicians that:
Pacemaker patients
• Should keep wireless telephones at least
six inches from the pacemaker.
• Should NOT place wireless telephones
directly over the pacemaker, such as in a
breast pocket, when it is turned ON.
• Should use the wireless telephone at the
ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk
to bystanders with pacemakers from other
persons using wireless telephones.
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.
ECO mode
This power conserving technology reduces
power consumption for optimal battery
performance. The ECO mode activities
automatically whenever the handset is
synchronized with the telephone base.
