Operating range
This cordless telephone operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and telephone base can communicate over only a certain distance
- which can vary with the locations of the telephone base and handset, the weather, and the layout of your
home or office.
When the handset is out of range, the handset displays Out of range or no pwr at base.
If there is a call while the handset is out of range, it may not ring, or if it does ring, the call may not connect
well when you press /HOME. Move closer to the telephone base, then press /HOME to answer the call.
If the handset moves out of range during a telephone conversation, there may be interference. To improve
reception, move closer to the telephone base.

Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
Your 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 protect 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 the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your own safety,
take caution when using electrical appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft
cloth slightly dampened with water or mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
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.

MISE EN GARDE : Rappelez-vous que les appareils électriques peuvent causer des blessures sérieuses
s’ils sont utilisés lorsque vous êtes mouillés ou lorsque vous êtes debout dans l’eau. Si le socle du téléphone
tombe à l’eau, NE LE RÉCUPÉREZ PAS AVANT D’AVOIR DÉBRANCHÉ LE CORDON D’ALIMENTATION ET
LE FIL TÉLÉPHONIQUE DES PRISES MURALES. Ensuite, récupérez-le en tenant les cordons débranchés.
À propos des téléphones sans l
Condentialité : Les mêmes caractéristiques qui constituent des avantages pour les téléphones sans
fil affichent également des restrictions. Les appels téléphoniques sont transmis entre le combiné sans
fil et le socle par le biais d’ondes radio ; il y a donc la possibilité que vos conversations téléphoniques
sans fil soient interceptées par des équipements de réception radio se trouvant dans la portée du
combiné sans fil. Pour cette raison, vous ne devez pas percevoir les communications téléphoniques
sans fil comme étant aussi confidentielles que celles des téléphones à cordons.
Alimentation électrique : Le socle de ce téléphone sans fil doit être branché à une prise électrique
fonctionnelle. La prise électrique ne doit pas être contrôlée par un interrupteur mural. Les appels ne
pourront pas être effectués du combiné sans fil si le socle est débranché ou mis hors tension ou si le
courant est coupé.
Possibilité d’interférences aux téléviseurs : Certains téléphones sans fil fonctionnent sur des
fréquences pouvant causer des interférences aux téléviseurs et aux magnétoscopes. Pour réduire ou
prévenir de telles interférences, ne placez pas le socle du téléphone sans fil près ou sur un téléviseur
ou magnétoscope. S’il y a présence de parasites, il est conseillé d’éloigner le téléphone sans fil du
téléviseur ou du magnétoscope afin de réduire possiblement les interférences.
Piles rechargeables : Manipulez les piles avec soin afin de ne pas les court-circuiter avec des
bagues, bracelets ou clés. Les piles ou le conducteur peut surchauffer et causer des blessures.
Respectez la polarité adéquate entre la pile et le chargeur.
Les bloc-piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel : Jetez ces blocs-piles de manière
écologique et sécuritaire. Ne les incinérez pas et ne les percez pas. Tel que les autres piles de ce type,
elles pourraient dégager une matière toxique qui peut causer des blessures corporelles si elles sont
brûlées ou percées.
