11. TROUBLESHOOTING

If you have difficulty with your phone, please try the suggestions listed below.
As a general rule, if a problem occurs, remove the batteries from all the handsets in your installation for about 1 minute, then disconnect and reconnect the power supply to the base and reinstall the handset batteries

12. SAFETY

In the event of an electrical hazard, the mains adapter acts as AC power isolating device. It should therefore, as a precaution, be installed close to the appliance and be easily accessible. To disconnect the device from the primary power source, the mains adapter must be removed from the AC socket.
If the mains adapter fails, it must be replaced by an identical model.
If not connected to the mains power or if there is a mains power failure, telephones that use cordless handsets will not work.
You will then be unable to make or receive calls in the event of an emergency.
This is why we recommend that you also keep a conventional telephone – one that doesn’t require a power supply – as a backup.
Do not use your telephone to notify a gas leak when standing in the vicinity of the leak.
It is recommended that you avoid using this device during electrical storms.
Do not attempt to open the batteries, as they contain chemical substances. In the event of leakage, avoid contact with the skin, eyes, nose and mouth. In the event of contact, rinse the affected part for about twenty minutes with running water and seek urgent medical attention. Clean the product with absorbent paper or a dry cloth and contact your reseller for replacement batteries.

13. ENVIRONMENT

This symbol means that your inoperative electronic appliance must be collected separately and not mixed with the household waste.
