Especially about cordless headsets
• Privacy:
The same features that make a cordless headset convenient create
some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the headset base and
the headset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless headset
conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range
of the cordless headset.
For this reason, you should not think of cordless headset
conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.
• Electrical power:
The headset base of this cordless headset must be connected to
a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch.
Calls cannot be
made from the headset if the headset base is unplugged or switched off, or if the
electrical power is interrupted.
• Potential TV interference:
Some cordless headsets operate at frequencies that may
cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do
not place the headset base of the cordless headset near or on top of a TV or VCR. If
interference is experienced, moving the cordless headset farther away from the TV
or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
• Rechargeable batteries:
This product contains lithium-ion rechargeable batteries.
Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with
conductive material such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may
overheat and cause harm.
• Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries:
Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do
not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they
could release caustic material which could cause injury.
