Caution:
Use only the rechargeable batteries recom-
mended on page 50! Never use conventional
batteries (non-rechargeable) or other battery
types as this may cause significant damage to
health and property. For example, the outer
casing of the batteries could be destroyed or
the batteries could explode. The phone could
also malfunction or be damaged as a result of
using batteries that are not of the recom-
mended type.
