basic safety precautions when using your cordless telephone equipment.
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the telephone.
3. Unplug this telephone from the wall outlet before cleaning or replacing the BATTERY
PACK. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners on the telephone. Use a damp cloth
for cleaning.
4. Do not use this telephone near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen
sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.
5. Place this telephone on a stable surface. Serious damage and/or injury may result if the
telephone falls.
6. Do not cover the slots and openings on this telephone. This telephone should not be
placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This telephone should not be placed in a
built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
7. Operate this telephone using the electrical voltage as stated on the BASE UNIT of the
telephone or in the Owner’s Manual. If you are not sure of the voltage in your home,
consult your dealer or local power company.
8. Do not place anything on the power cord. Install the telephone where no one will step or
trip on the cord.
9. Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can increase the risk of fire or
electric shock.
10. Never push objects of any kind through the slots in the telephone. They could touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the telephone.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this telephone. Take it to a
qualified serviceman when service or repair work is required. Opening or removing covers
may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause
electric shock when the telephone is subsequently used.
12. Unplug this telephone from the wall outlet and consult a qualified service representative
in any of the following situations:
A. When the power supply cord is frayed or damaged.
B. If liquid has been spilled into the telephone.
C. If the telephone has been exposed to rain or water.

Safety Instructions
E. If the telephone has been dropped or the case has been damaged.
F. If the telephone exhibits a distinct change in performance.
13. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
14. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Battery Safety
CAUTION:
Danger of explosion if the BATTERYPACK is replaced with incorrect type. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type. To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury,
read and follow these instructions:
1. Use only the following type and size of BATTERY PACK:
Cordless Telephone BATTERY PACK
3.6V, 600mAh
U.S. Electronics Inc.
Ni-Cd BATTERYPACK: Model B650
(See page 29 for ordering information.)
2. Do not dispose of the BATTERYPACK in a fire. The BATTERYPACK may explode. Check
with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the BATTERY PACK. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may
cause damage to the eyes or skin. Electrolyte may be toxic if swallowed.
4. Exercise care in handling the BATTERY PACK to prevent shorting the BATTERY PACK
with conductive materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The BATTERY PACK or
conductor may overheat and cause burns.
5. Charge the BATTERY PACK provided with (or identified for use with) this telephone only
in accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this manual.
6. Observe proper polarity orientation between the BAT T E RY PACK and BATTERY
CHARGER.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION:
The telephone that you have purchased contains a rechargeable BATTERY PACK. The
BATTERYPACK is recyclable. At the end of its useful life, under various state and local laws,
it may be illegal to dispose of this BATTERY PACK into the municipal waste stream. Check
with your local solid waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper
disposal.
