Care

¤Wipe down the base station and hand- set with a damp cloth (no solvents) or an antistatic cloth.

Never use a dry cloth. This can cause a build up of static.

Contact with liquid !

If the handset has come into contact with liquid:

¤Switch the handset off and remove the batteries immediately.

¤Allow the liquid to drain from the hand- set.

¤Pat all parts dry, then with the battery compartment open and the keypad fac- ing down place the handset in a dry, warm place for at least 72 hours (not in a microwave, oven etc.).

¤Do not switch on the handset again until it is completely dry.

When it has fully dried out, you will normally be able to use it again.
