TAKING CARE OF YOUR TELE-
PHONE.
Your VTech VT 9141 cordless telephone
contains sophisticated electronic parts
so it must be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save
the original packing materials to pro-
tect your telephone if you ever need
to ship it.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged if it
gets wet. Do not use the handset
outdoors in the rain, or handle it with
wet hands. Do not install your base
unit near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Remember that electrical appliances
can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in water. If
your base unit should fall into water,
DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UN-
PLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELE-
PHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE
WALL. Then pull the unit out by the
unplugged cords.
ELECTRICAL STORMS
Electrical storms can sometimes
cause power surges harmful to elec-
tronic equipment.
For your own safety, use caution
when using electric appliances dur-
ing storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plas-
tic casing that should retain its lus-
ter for many years. Clean it only with
a soft cloth slightly dampened with
MAINTENANCE
water or a mild soap. Do not use
excess water or cleaning solvents
of any kind.
