Important safety instructions
When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fire, 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. Do not use this product near water
such as near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, laundry
tub or a swimming pool, nor in a wet basement or shower. 5. Do not place this
product on an unstable table, shelf, stand or other unstable surfaces. 6.
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. 7. 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. 8. 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. 9. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not install
this product where the cord may be walked on. 10. 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. 11. 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. 12. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords.
13. 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. 14. Avoid using a telephone (other than cordless) during an
electrical storm. There is a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. 15.
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. 16. Only put the handset of your telephone
next to your ear when it is in normal talk mode. 17. 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.
3 Operate
18. 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 (BT183342/BT283342) for the handset.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode.
20. 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. 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. 5. Ne déposez pas ce
téléphone sur un chariot, support ou table chancelants. L’appareil pourrait
tomber et être sérieusement endommagé. 6. 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. 7. 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. 8. 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. 9. 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. 10. 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. 11. 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. 12. Ne surchargez pas les
prises de courant et les rallonges. 13. 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

14. Évitez d’utiliser un téléphone (autre qu’un sans fil) pendant un orage.
Les éclairs peuvent être à l’origine d’une électrocution. 15. 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. 16. Ne
placez que le combiné de votre téléphone près de votre oreille lorsqu’en mode
de conversation. 17. 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. 18. 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 (BT183342/BT283342). N’incinérez pas les piles. Celles-ci
risqueraient d’exploser.
20. 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.
