Safety information
General
Only use the power supply unit included with the product. Using an unauthorised power supply unit will invalidate your guarantee and may damage the telephone. The item number for the power supply unit is 872264. Radio signals transmitted between the handset and base may cause interference to some hearing aids.
Do not open the handset or base station (other than to change the handset batteries). This could expose you to high voltages or other risks. Contact the helpline for repairs.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire. There is a serious risk of explosion and/or the release of highly toxic chemicals.
Cleaning
Simply clean the handset and base station with a damp (not wet) cloth, or an antistatic wipe. Never use household polish as this will damage the product. Never use a dry cloth as this may cause a static shock.
Environmental
Do not expose to direct sunlight.
The product may heat up when the batteries are being recharged. This is normal. However, to avoid damage, we recommend that you do not place the product on antique/veneered wood.
Do not expose your product to fire, explosive or other hazardous conditions.
There is a slight chance that your phone could be damaged by an electrical storm. We recommend that you unplug the power and telephone line cord for the duration of the storm.
Do not stand your product on carpets or other surfaces which generate fibres, or place it in locations preventing free flow of air over its surfaces.
