Especially about cordless telephones

Privacy: The same features that make a cordless phone 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 phone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset.

For this reason, you should not think of cordless phone conversations as being as private as those on corded phones.

Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be 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.
