if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid Water
Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors in the
rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install your charger near a sink, bathtub, shower
or pool.

Electrical Storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For
your safety, use caution when using electrical appliance during storms.
Cleaning Your Telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years.
Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or mild soap. Do not use excess
water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
For optimum performance, regularly clean the metal charge contact located in the charge
cradle and on the bottom of the A50E handset. Gently rub the contacts with a clean pencil
eraser.
