Safety precautions
Caution:
Read the safety precautions and the operating instructions before use.
Explain their contents to your children, and the potential hazards associated with using the tele-
phone.
Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base.
Fit only the
recommended rechargeable batteries (page 38)
of the same
type! Do not use any other battery type or non-rechargeable batteries as this
could result in significant health risks and personal injury.
Insert rechargeable batteries as indicated by their polarity symbols, and use
them according to these instructions (polarity symbols can be seen in the hand-
set's battery compartments).
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical
conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.
Do not install the base station in bathrooms or showers. The handset and base
are not waterproof (page 36).
Switch off your phone when onboard aircraft. Ensure that it cannot be switched
on again accidentally.
Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard,
e.g. auto paint shops.
If you give your telephone to someone else, make sure you also give them the
operating manual.
Dispose of the batteries and phone in accordance with environmental regula-
tions.
