Liquid Damage

Moisture and liquid can damage your cordless phone.

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.

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), follow the steps below:

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

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 phone does not work, please call our Customer Service Hotline (see the back cover page).

If the waterproof handset falls in water

If your waterproof handset is submerged in water, just pull it out and dry it off. You might notice that the sound is distorted. This is because there is still water remaining in and around the speaker and microphone. Just shake the handset to clear excess water, and the sound should return to normal.

Note: The charging cradle is not waterproof. If the charging cradle falls into water, unplug it before attempting to remove it from the water. Allow the cradle to dry completely before reconnecting the power.
