Note for connections

LThe AC adaptor must remain connected at
all times. (It is normal for the adaptor to feel
warm during use.)
LThe AC adaptor should be connected to a
vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to a
ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the weight of
the adaptor may cause it to become
disconnected.

The unit will not work during a power failure.
We recommend connecting a corded-type
telephone (without AC adaptor) to the same
telephone line or to the same telephone line
jack using a T-adaptor.

For replacement, we recommend using the
Panasonic rechargeable batteries noted on
