11. ENVIRONMENT
Used handset batteries must be disposed of in compliance with current environmental protection regulations. You should return your batteries to your reseller or dispose of them in an approved recycling centre.
12. SAFETY
In the event of danger, the mains adapter acts as 230V power isolating devi- ce. It should therefore, as a precaution, be installed close to the appliance and be easily accessible.
If the mains adapter fails, it must be replaced by an identical model.
If they are not connected to the mains power or if there is a mains power fai- lure, installations with cordless handsets will no longer work. You will then be unable to make or receive calls in the event of an emergency. This is why we recommend that you also have a conventional telephone as a backup.
Battery type: rechargeable batteries
Do not attempt to open the batteries, as they contain chemical substances. In the event of leakage, avoid contact with the skin, eyes, mouth and nose. In the event of contact, rinse the affected part for twenty minutes in running water and seek medical assistance immediately.
Clean the telephone with absorbent paper or a dry cloth and contact your reseller to change your batteries.
!Do not use your telephone to notify a gas leak when you are in the vicinity of the leak.
We recommend that you avoid using this device during electrical storms.
