electric shock and injury, including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions.
2. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
3. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth
for cleaning.
4. CAUTION: Do not install the telephone base at a height above 2 meters.
5. Do not use this product near water such as near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub or a swimming
pool, or in a wet basement or shower.
6. Do not place this product on an unstable table, shelf, stand or other unstable surfaces.
7. Avoid placing the telephone system in places with extreme temperature, direct sunlight, or other electrical
devices. Protect your phone from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.
8. Slots and openings in the back or bottom of the telephone base and handset are provided for ventilation. To
protect them from overheating, these openings must not be blocked by placing the product on a soft surface
such as a bed, sofa or rug. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This
product should not be placed in any area where proper ventilation is not provided.
9. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are
not sure of the type of power supply in your home or office, consult your dealer or local power company.
10. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not install this product where the cord may be walked on.
11. Never push objects of any kind into this product through the slots in the telephone base or handset because they
may touch dangerous voltage points or create a short circuit. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
12. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product, but take it to an authorized service facility.
Opening or removing parts of the telephone base or handset other than specified access doors may expose
you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembling can cause electric shock when the product is
subsequently used.
13. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords.
14. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to an authorized service facility under the following
conditions:
· When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
· If liquid has been spilled onto the product.
· If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
· If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the operation instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage
and often requires extensive work by an authorized technician to restore the product to normal operation.
· If the product has been dropped and the telephone base and/or handset has been damaged.
· If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
15. Avoid using a telephone (other than cordless) during an electrical storm. There is a remote risk of electric shock
from lightning.
16. Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. Under certain circumstances, a spark may
be created when the adapter is plugged into the power outlet, or when the handset is replaced in its cradle. This
is a common event associated with the closing of any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone into
a power outlet, and should not put a charged handset into the cradle, if the phone is located in an environment
containing concentrations of flammable or flame-supporting gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark
in such an environment could create a fire or explosion. Such environments might include: medical use of oxygen
without adequate ventilation; industrial gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas; etc.
17. Only put the handset of your telephone next to your ear when it is in normal talk mode.
18. The power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position. The prongs are not
designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the- table or cabinet outlet.
19. For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
CAUTION: Use only the batteries indicated in this manual. There may be a risk of explosion if a wrong
type of battery is used for the handset. Use only the supplied rechargeable batteries or replacement
batteries (BT162342/BT262342) for the handset. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode.
21. Use only the adapter included with this product. Incorrect adapter polarity or voltage can seriously damage the
product.

Precautions for users of implanted cardiac pacemakers Cardiac pacemakers
(applies only to digital cordless telephones): Wireless Technology Research,
LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation
of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac
pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR recommends
to physicians that: Pacemaker patients · Should keep wireless telephones at
least six inches from the pacemaker. · Should NOT place wireless telephones
directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned
ON. · Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from
other persons using wireless telephones. About cordless telephones · Privacy:
The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create some
limitations. Telephone calls are
transmitted between the telephone base and the cordless handset by radio
waves, so there is a possibility that the cordless telephone conversations
could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless
handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone
conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones. · Electrical
power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a
working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a
wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the cordless handset if the telephone
base is unplugged, switched off or if the electrical power is interrupted. ·
Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies
that may cause interference to televisions and VCRs. To minimize or prevent
such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone
near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the
cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR often reduces or eliminates
the interference. · Rechargeable batteries: Exercise care in handling
batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conducting material such
as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause
harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery charger. ·
Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a
safe manner. Do not burn or puncture the battery. Like other batteries of this
type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could
cause injury.

Mesures de sécurité importantes Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie, de
blessures corporelles ou d’électrocution, suivez toujours ces mesures
préventives de base lorsque vous utilisez votre téléphone : 1. Lisez et
comprenez bien toutes les instructions. 2. Observez toutes les instructions et
mises en garde inscrites sur l’appareil. 3. Débranchez ce téléphone de la
prise murale avant de le nettoyer. N’utilisez pas de nettoyeurs liquides ni en
aérosol.
N’utilisez qu’un chiffon doux et légèrement humecté. 4. ATTENTION: Ne pas
installer le socle téléphonique à une hauteur supérieure à 2 mètres. 5.
N’utilisez pas ce produit près de l’eau, tel que près d’un bain, d’un lavabo,
d’un évier de cuisine, d’un bac de lavage
ou d’une piscine, ou dans un sous-sol humide ou sous la douche. 6. Ne déposez
pas ce téléphone sur un chariot, support ou table chancelants. L’appareil
pourrait tomber et être
sérieusement endommagé. 7. Évitez d’installer le système téléphonique dans les
endroits soumis à une température extrême, à la lumière directe du
soleil ou à proximité immédiate d’autres appareils électriques ou
électroniques. Protégez votre téléphone contre les sources d’humidité, la
poussière, les vapeurs et les liquides corrosifs. 8. Le boîtier de l’appareil
est doté de fentes et d’ouvertures d’aération situées à l’arrière ou en
dessous. Afin d’empêcher la surchauffe, ces ouvertures ne doivent pas être
obstruées en plaçant l’appareil sur un lit, divan, tapis ou autre surface
similaires. Ne placez pas cet appareil à proximité d’un élément de chauffage
ni d’une plinthe électrique. De plus, ne l’installez pas dans une unité murale
ou un cabinet fermé qui ne possède pas d’aération adéquate. 9. Ne faites
fonctionner cet appareil qu’avec le type d’alimentation indiqué sur les
étiquettes de l’appareil. Si vous ne connaissez pas le voltage de votre
maison, consultez votre marchand ou votre fournisseur d’électricité. 10. Ne
déposez rien sur le cordon d’alimentation. Installez cet appareil dans un
endroit sécuritaire, là où personne ne pourra trébucher sur la ligne
d’alimentation ni le cordon téléphonique modulaire. 11. N’insérez jamais
d’objets à travers les fentes et ouvertures de cet appareil, car ils
pourraient toucher à des points de tension dangereux ou court-circuiter des
pièces, ce qui constituerait un risque d’incendie ou d’électrocution.
N’échappez pas de liquides dans l’appareil. 12. Afin de réduire les risques
d’électrocution, ne démontez pas l’appareil, mais apportez-le plutôt à un
centre de service qualifié s’il doit être réparé. En enlevant le couvercle,
vous vous exposez à des tensions dangereuses ou autres dangers similaires. Un
remontage inadéquat peut être à l’origine d’une électrocution lors d’une
utilisation ultérieure de l’appareil. Débranchez l’appareil avant de procéder
au nettoyage. Utilisez un chiffon humide et doux. 13. Ne surchargez pas les
prises de courant et les rallonges. 14. Débranchez cet appareil de la prise de
courant et communiquez avec le département de service à la clientèle de VTech
dans les cas suivants : · Lorsque le cordon d’alimentation est endommagé ou
écorché. · Si du liquide a été échappé dans l’appareil. · Si l’appareil a été
exposé à une source d’humidité telle que la pluie ou l’eau. · Si le produit ne
fonctionne pas normalement en respectant les instructions de fonctionnement.
Réglez
uniquement les commandes indiquées dans le les instructions de fonctionnement.
Les réglages incorrects des autres commandes pourraient provoquer un dommage
qui pourrait exiger un travail exhaustif de la part d’un technicien autorisé
afin de rétablir le fonctionnement normal de l’appareil. · Si le produit a été
échappé et que le socle et/ou le combiné a été endommagé. · Si le produit
affiche une nette diminution de sa performance. 15. Évitez d’utiliser un
téléphone (autre qu’un sans fil) pendant un orage. Les éclairs peuvent être à
l’origine d’une électrocution. 16. N’utilisez pas le téléphone pour rapporter
une fuite de gaz à proximité de la fuite. En certaines circonstances, une
flammèche pourrait être provoquée lorsque l’adaptateur est branché à une prise
de courant, ou lorsque le combiné est déposé sur le socle. Ceci est un
événement commun associé à la fermeture d’un circuit électrique. L’utilisateur
ne devrait pas brancher le téléphone à une prise de courant, et ne devrait pas
déposer le combiné chargé sur le socle, si le téléphone se trouve à proximité
d’un endroit comportant des concentrations de gaz inflammables, à moins que la
ventilation soit adéquate. Une flammèche dans un tel endroit pourrait
provoquer un incendie ou une explosion. De tels environnements peuvent
comprendre: des endroits où l’on utilise de l’oxygène médical sans ventilation
adéquate; des gaz industriels (dissolvants de nettoyage, des vapeurs
d’essence, etc.); une fuite de gaz naturel, etc. 17. Ne placez que le combiné
de votre téléphone près de votre oreille lorsqu’en mode de conversation. 18.
Ces adaptateurs ont été conçus pour être orientés en position verticale ou
montés au sol. Les broches ne sont pas conçues pour maintenir l’adaptateur en
place si celui-ci est barnché dans une prise au plafond ou sous une table/
armoire. 19. Pour le MATERIEL RACCORDE PAR PRISE DE COURANT, le socle de prise
de courant doit etre installe a proximite du materiel et doit etre aisement
accessible.
MISE EN GARDE: Il peut y avoir un risque d’explosion si vous utilisez le mauvais type de piles pour le
téléphone. N’utilisez que les piles rechargeable inclus ou les piles de rechange (BT162342/BT262342). N’incinérez pas
les piles. Celles-ci risqueraient d’exploser.
21. N’utilisez que les adaptateurs inclus avec ce produit. L’utilisation d’un adaptateur dont la polarité ou la tension serait inadéquate risque d’endommager sérieusement le produit et mettre votre sécurité en péril.
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS Pile · N’utilisez que la pile incluse ou
l’équivalent. · Ne jetez pas la pile au feu. Vérifiez les instructions
spécifiques de mise aux rebus auprès des autorités locales. · N’ouvrez pas et
ne mutilez pas la pile. L’électrolyte qui s’en échapperait est corrosif et
pourrait causer des brûlures
ou des blessures aux yeux ou à la peau. L’électrolyte est toxique si avalé. ·
Soyez prudents lorsque vous manipulez les piles afin d’éviter les courts-
circuits provoqués par des matériaux
conducteurs. · Rechargez la pile incluse avec cet appareil, selon les
instructions et limites spécifiées dans ce guide d’utilisation. Stimulateurs
cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme Les simulateurs cardiaques (s’applique
uniquement aux téléphones numériques sans fil) : L’organisme `Wireless
Technology Research, LLC (WTR)’, une firme de recherche indépendante, a mené
une évaluation pluridisciplinaire des interférences entre les téléphones sans
fil portatifs et les stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme.
Appuyée par l’Administration des aliments et drogues (FDA) des États-Unis, la
firme WTR recommande aux médecins : Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs
cardiaques · Ils doivent tenir le téléphone sans fil à une distance d’au moins
six pouces du stimulateur cardiaque. · Ils ne doivent PAS placer le téléphone
sans fil directement sur le stimulateur cardiaque, tel que dans une poche de
chemise, lorsque celui-ci est en marche. · Ils doivent utiliser le téléphone
sans fil en l’appuyant sur l’oreille qui se trouve dans la direction opposée
au
stimulateur cardiaque. L’étude effectuée par l’organisme WRS n’a pas identifié
de risque pour les détenteurs de simulateurs cardiaques causés par les gens
qui utilisent un téléphone sans fil à proximité de ceux-ci. À propos des
téléphones sans fil Confidentialité : Les mêmes caractéristiques qui
constituent des avantages pour les téléphones sans fil affichent également des
restrictions. Les appels téléphoniques sont transmis entre le combiné sans fil
et le socle par le biais d’ondes radio ; il y a donc la possibilité que vos
conversations téléphoniques sans fil soient interceptées par des équipements
de réception radio se trouvant dans la portée du combiné sans fil. Pour cette
raison, vous ne devez pas percevoir les communications téléphoniques sans fil
comme étant aussi confidentielles que celles des téléphones à cordons.
Alimentation électrique : Le socle de ce téléphone sans fil doit être branché
à une prise électrique fonctionnelle. La prise électrique ne doit pas être
contrôlée par un interrupteur mural. Les appels ne pourront pas être effectués
du combiné sans fil si le socle est débranché ou mis hors tension ou si le
courant est coupé. Possibilité d’interférences aux téléviseurs : Certains
téléphones sans fil fonctionnent sur des fréquences pouvant causer des
interférences aux téléviseurs et aux magnétoscopes. Pour réduire ou prévenir
de telles interférences, ne placez pas le socle du téléphone sans fil près ou
sur un téléviseur ou magnétoscope. S’il y a présence de parasites, il est
conseillé d’éloigner le téléphone sans fil du téléviseur ou du magnétoscope
afin de réduire possiblement les interférences. Piles rechargeables :
Manipulez les piles avec soin afin de ne pas les court-circuiter avec des
bagues, bracelets ou clés. Les piles ou le conducteur peut surchauffer et
causer des blessures. Respectez la polarité adéquate entre la pile et le
chargeur. Les bloc-piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel :
Jetez ces blocs-piles de manière écologique et sécuritaire. Ne les incinérez
pas et ne les percez pas. Tel que les autres piles de ce type, elles
pourraient dégager une
matière toxique qui peut causer des blessures corporelles si elles sont
brûlées ou percées.
