Important safety information

Especially 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 handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your 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 tele- phone conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.

Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be con- nected to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.

PotentialTV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference toTVs andVCRs.To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of aTV orVCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from theTV orVCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either nickel-cadmium or nickel- metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conductive 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-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of them in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

The RBRCSeal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement

batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1-800-8-BATTERY for locations accepting spent nickel-cadmium batteries.
