Liquid Damage

Moisture and liquid can damage your cordless phone. Follow the suggestions below if your phone gets wet.

Exterior

If the handset or base is exposed to moisture or liquid, but only the exterior plastic housing is affected, wipe off the liquid, and use as normal.

Interior

If moisture or liquid has entered the plastic housing (i.e. liquid can be heard in the phone or liquid has entered the handset battery compartment or vent openings on the base):

Handset:

.Remove the battery cover and leave it off for ventilation.

2.Disconnect the battery pack. Leave the battery cover off and the battery pack disconnected for at least 3 days.

3.Once the handset is completely dry, reconnect the battery pack and the battery cover.

4.Recharge the handset's battery pack for 15 to 20 hours before using.

IMPORTANT: You must unplug the telephone line while recharging the battery packs to avoid charge interruption.

Base:

.Disconnect the AC adaptor from the base, cutting off electrical power.

2.Disconnect the telephone cord from the base.

3.Let dry for at least 3 days.

CAUTION: DO NOT use a microwave oven to speed up the drying process. This will cause permanent damage to the handset, base and the microwave oven. After following these steps, if your cordless telephone does not work, please call our Customer Service Hotline. See back cover page for contact information.
