Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
• Your base station and cordless handset contain sophisticated electronic
parts, so you must treat them with care.
• Avoid rough treatment.
• Place the handset down gently.
• Save the original packing materials to protect your products if you ever need
to ship them.
Avoid water
• You can damage your cordless telephone if it gets wet. Do not use the
handset in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the base
station and handset near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
• Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic
equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electric appliances
during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
• Your products have a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for
many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a
mild soap.
•
Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you
are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into water, DO NOT
RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE WALL,
then pull the unit out by the unplugged cord.
Deregistering the handset
Before using the handset with a different base station, you must deregister the
handset from the base station to which it is currently registered.
