Important safety information

This equipment is not designed for making emergency calls in the event of a power failure.

Alternative arrangements should be made for access to emergency services.

(This means that you should also have a basic phone that does not need mains power,

connected to your line so that you can make calls during a power failure)

People with a heart pacemaker should consult their doctor before using the telephone.

If you wear a hearing aid, you should note SK9151 works by transmitting radio waves between

base and handset that may cause a humming noise.

1. DO NOT clean any part of your phone with benzene, thinner or other solvent chemicals,

which may cause permanent damage to your phone. This damage is not covered by the

Guarantee. When necessary, clean it with a damp cloth.

Cleaning it with a wet cloth may give you an electric shock.

while you are wet or standing in water. NEVER use your phone during a thunderstorm. Unplug

the base unit from the telephone line and the mains socket when there are storms in your area.

recommended that this equipment is NOT placed in direct contact with antique, veneered or

delicate furniture surfaces.

where they could get punctured.

6. The SK9151 DECT phone emits radio signals which could interfere with other electronic

equipment, computers, radio, TV set, clock radio alarms, etc.

pod, to keep the batteries charged.
