IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and/or injury, always follow these
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. Do not use this telephone near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, near a swimming pool, or anywhere else where there is water.
4. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be
a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
5. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
6. Use only the power cord and BATTERY PACK indicated in the Owner’s Manual. Do not dispose
of the BATTERY PACK in a fire. The BATTERY PACK may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instructions.
7. Operate this telephone using the electrical voltage as stated on the BASE UNIT 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. 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.
9. Place this telephone on a stable surface. Serious damage and/or injury may result if the
telephone falls.
10. Do not cover the slots and openings on this telephone. This telephone should never 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.
11. Do not place anything on the power cord. Install the telephone where no one will step or trip on
the cord.
12. Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can increase the risk of fire or electric
shock.
13. Never push any objects 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.
14. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not take this telephone apart. If service or repair work is
required on this telephone, take it to a qualified service representative. Opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause
electric shock when the appliance is subsequently used.
15. 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.
D. If the telephone does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust
only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment may
require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the telephone to normal
operation.
manual 9742.qxd 1/11/2003 11:24 AM Page 12
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.
16. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
17. Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
18. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
19. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Battery Safety
CAUTION:
Danger of explosion if BATTERY PACK is incorrectly replaced. 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, 800mAh
U.S. Electronics Inc.
Ni-Cd BATTERY PACK: model B658. (See page 39 for ordering information.)
LK Battery Tech. Co. Ltd. 3.6VDC, 800mAh Ni-Cd AA800mAhx3 (Alternative Battery.)
2. Do not dispose of the BATTERY PACK in a fire. It may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the BATTERY PACK. Released electrolyte from a BATTERY PACK
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 BATTERY PACK and BATTERY
CHARGER.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION:
The telephone that you have purchased contains a rechargeable BATTERY PACK. The
BATTERY PACK 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.
