Congratulations
on purchasing your new VTech product.
Before using this telephone, please read
Important safety instructions.
This manual has all the feature operations
and troubleshooting necessary to install
and operate your new VTech telephone.
Please review this manual thoroughly to
ensure proper installation and operation
of this innovative and feature rich VTech
product.
For support, shopping, and everything
new at VTech, visit our website at
www.vtechphones.com. In Canada, please
visit www.vtechcanada.com.
9. Do not allow anything to rest on the
power cord. Do not install this product
where the cord may be walked on.
10. Never push objects of any kind into
this product through the slots in the
telephone base or handset because
they may touch dangerous voltage
points or create a short circuit. Never
spill liquid of any kind on the product.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not disassemble this product, but
take it to an authorized service facility.
Opening or removing parts of the
telephone base or handset other than
specified access doors may expose
you to dangerous voltages or other
risks. Incorrect reassembling can cause
electric shock when the product is
subsequently used.
12. Do not overload wall outlets and
extension cords.
13. Unplug this product from the wall
outlet and refer servicing to an
authorized service facility under the
following conditions:
When the power supply cord or
plug is damaged or frayed.
If liquid has been spilled onto the
product.
If the product has been exposed to
rain or water.
If the product does not operate
normally by following the operating
instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the
operation instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls may
result in damage and often requires
extensive work by an authorized
technician to restore the product to
normal operation.
If the product has been dropped
and the telephone base and/or
handset has been damaged.
If the product exhibits a distinct
change in performance.
14. Avoid using a telephone (other than
cordless) during an electrical storm.
There is a remote risk of electric shock
from lightning.
15. Do not use the telephone to report
a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Under certain circumstances, a spark
may be created when the adapter
is plugged into the power outlet,
or when the handset is replaced in
its cradle. This is a common event
associated with the closing of any
electrical circuit. The user should
not plug the phone into a power
outlet, and should not put a charged
handset into the cradle, if the phone is
located in an environment containing
concentrations of flammable or
flame-supporting gases, unless there
is adequate ventilation. A spark in
such an environment could create a
fire or explosion. Such environments
might include: medical use of oxygen
without adequate ventilation; industrial
gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline
vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc.
16. Only put the handset of your
telephone next to your ear when it is in
normal talk mode.
17. The power adapter is intended to be
correctly oriented in a vertical or floor
mount position. The prongs are not
designed to hold the plug in place if
it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the-
table or cabinet outlet.
18. For pluggable equipment, the
socket-outlet shall be installed near
the equipment and shall be easily
accessible.
19. CAUTION: Use only the batteries
indicated in this manual. There may
be a risk of explosion if a wrong type
of battery is used for the handset.
Use only the supplied rechargeable
batteries or replacement batteries
(BT183342/BT283342) for the handset.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
They may explode.
20. Use only the adapter included with
this product. Incorrect adapter polarity
or voltage can seriously damage the
product.
Base unit power adapter:
Output: 6V DC @ 600mA.
Charger unit power adapter:
Output: 6V DC @ 400mA.

Precautions for users of implanted
cardiac pacemakers
Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital
cordless telephones):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC
(WTR), an independent research entity,
led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the
interference between portable wireless
telephones and implanted cardiac
pacemakers. Supported by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration, WTR
recommends to physicians that:
Pacemaker patients
Should keep wireless telephones at least
six inches from the pacemaker.
Should NOT place wireless telephones
directly over the pacemaker, such as in a
breast pocket, when it is turned ON.
Should use the wireless telephone at the
ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk
to bystanders with pacemakers from other
persons using wireless telephones.
About cordless telephones
Privacy: The same features that make a
cordless telephone convenient create
some limitations. Telephone calls are
transmitted between the telephone
base and the cordless handset by radio
waves, so there is a possibility that
the cordless telephone conversations
could be intercepted by radio receiving
equipment within range of the
cordless handset. For this reason, you
should not think of cordless telephone
conversations as being as private as
those on corded telephones.
Electrical power: The telephone base
of this cordless telephone must be
connected to a working electrical outlet.
The electrical outlet should not be
controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot
be made from the cordless handset
if the telephone base is unplugged,
switched off or if the electrical power is
interrupted.
Potential TV interference: Some cordless
telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference to televisions
and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, do not place the telephone
base of the cordless telephone near or
on top of a TV or VCR. If interference
is experienced, moving the cordless
telephone farther away from the TV or
VCR often reduces or eliminates the
interference.
Rechargeable batteries: Exercise care in
handling batteries in order not to create
a short circuit with conducting material
such as rings, bracelets and keys. The
battery or conductor may overheat and
cause harm. Observe proper polarity
between the battery and the battery
charger.
Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable
batteries: Dispose of these batteries in
a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture
the battery. Like other batteries of this
type, if burned or punctured, they could
release caustic material which could
cause injury.
