SAFETY INFORMATION
Prior to installing and using the telephone, please read the following
important safety information.
HANDSET AND BASE STATION
Do not:
Rely only on this telephone as your only means of communication in
the event of an emergency. As this handset uses radio signals, a connection
to the telephone network cannot be guaranteed in all circumstances.
Use this handset near medical equipment such as pacemakers.
Place the handset in areas subject to explosive hazards, flammable
liquids or gases.
Set up and use the handset close to devices that emit electromagnetic
fields (i.e. electric motors, household appliances, fluorescent lamps,
computers, radios, televisions, VCR’s, DVD’s etc.) Operation of the handset
could be adversely affected if exposed to such fields and, at minimum,
subject to interference and poorer quality voice communication.
Locate the handset and base station near water, moisture, damp
areas, heat sources, direct sunlight, areas with excessive dust, vibration
or temperature extremes.
Clean the handset using any chemical or commercial cleaner. Use only an
anti-static or soft moistened cloth to clean the handset. Disconnect the
charger stand prior to cleaning.
NOTE:
1. Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone.
2. The antenna used for the base station transmitter must be installed
to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons.
BATTERIES
Please observe the following guidelines when dealing with the batteries:
Never tamper with or dismantle the battery pack
Avoid touching the battery contacts
If necessary, clean the contacts with a damp cloth
Protect the battery contacts from contact with any metal objects
Never immerse batteries in water or throw them into a fire
When setting up the phone:
Use only the rechargeable batteries supplied with this product
Follow the battery installation instructions included with this guide
Note:
That it takes two to three charging cycles for the batteries to reach
their fully charged state.
Charge the batteries using only the charger stand supplied with
this product
CM16.book Page 2 Wednesday, November 24, 2004 4:01 PM

Model CM-16 User Guide
In operation:
It is normal for the batteries to become warm when charging.
Discharge the batteries from time to time to prolong their service life.
To do this, do not place the phone back into the charger stand until the
batteries are completely or almost completely discharged. The battery
icon on the display will indicate when the batteries are low and an alert
tone is sounded every three minutes.
Only use batteries and charging units approved by the manufacturer.
If you do not intend to use the phone for an extended period, the batteries
should be removed from the handset.
Store batteries at room temperature. Above average temperatures tend
to reduce the service life of batteries.
Do not throw away or incinerate used batteries. Take them to an
appropriate collection point for recycling or send them back to your
supplier or distributor.
The batteries included with the CM-16 are designed to provide up to four
hours talk time and eighty hours standby time. Actual battery performance
can be affected by a wide variety of environmental and user factors.
