Handling Liquid Damage
Moisture and liquid can damage your cordless phone.
If the handset or base is exposed to moisture or liquid, but only the
exterior plastic housing is affected, wipe off the liquid, and use as
normal.
If moisture or liquid has entered the plastic housing (i.e. liquid can
be heard in the phone or liquid has entered the handset battery
compartment or vent openings on the base), follow these steps:
Handset
Base
Remove the battery cover & disconnect the
1.
battery.
Let dry for at least 3 days with the battery
2.
disconnected and the cover off for ventilation.
After the handset dries, reconnect the battery
3.
pack and replace the cover. Recharge the
battery fully (15-20 hours) before using.
Disconnect the AC
1.
adapter to cut off the
power.
Disconnect the
2.
telephone cord.
Let dry for at least 3 days
3.
before reconnecting.
IMpOrTANT: you must unplug the telephone line while
recharging the battery pack to avoid charge interruption.
CAUTION! DO NOT use a microwave oven to speed up the
drying process. This will cause permanent damage to the
handset, base and the microwave oven.
Automatic ECO (Power Save) Mode
Handset
ECO mode activates automatically during Talk or Intercom modes,
if the received signal is good, to reduce power consumption. ECO
shows on the display when
ECO
mode is active. If the received signal
becomes poor, ECO mode will be released and
ECO
will be turned
off.
Base
If the base has only one handset registered (i.e. no accessory
handsets) then the base will reduce its transmission power when the
handset is on the base.
