Safety information
f Read and understand all instructions in the user’s manual. Observe all markings on the product.
f Avoid using a telephone during a thunderstorm. There may be a slight chance of electric shock from lightning.
f Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas 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. In an inadequately ventilated environment, the user should not plug the phone into a power outlet, nor put a charged handset into the cradle where there are concentrations of flammable or flamesupporting gases. 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.
f Do not use this product near water or when you are wet. For example, do not use it in a wet basement or shower, nor next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink and laundry tub. Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquid, unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has dried thoroughly.
f Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.
f If this product does not operate normally, see the Troubleshooting section on pages 13-23 of this user’s manual. If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the Limited warranty section pages 36-38. Do not open this product except as directed in your user’s manual.

f To prevent risk of fire or battery explosion, replace with the correct battery type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Especially about cordless telephones f Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create
some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your 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. f Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the telephone base is unplugged, switched off or if the electrical power is interrupted. f Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to TVs 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 will often reduce or eliminate the interference. f Rechargeable batteries: This product contains nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conductive 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. f Nickel- metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.

Spécifiquement en rapport avec les téléphones sans fil
f Confidentialité : Les mêmes caractéristiques qui rendent les téléphones sans fil si pratiques créent également des restrictions. Les appels téléphoniques sont transmis entre le socle du téléphone et le combiné par le biais d’ondes radio, et il se peut que vos conversations téléphoniques soient interceptées par d’autres équipements de réception d’ondes radio au sein de la portée du téléphone sans fil. Pour cette raison, vous ne devez pas considérer les conversations sur un téléphone sans fil comme étant aussi confidentielles que celles d’un téléphone à cordon.
f Alimentation électrique : La base de ce téléphone sans fil doit être branchée à une prise de courant électrique fonctionnelle. La prise électrique ne doit pas être contrôlée par un interrupteur mural. Les appels ne peuvent pas être effectués à partir du combiné si la base n’est pas branchée, si elle est hors fonction ou si le courant électrique est coupé.
f Interférences potentielles aux téléviseurs : Certains téléphones sans fil fonctionnent sur des fréquences pouvant causer des interférences aux téléviseurs et magnétoscopes. Pour réduire ou prévenir de tels parasites, ne pas déposer la base du téléphone sans fil à proximité d’un téléviseur ou magnétoscope, ni directement sur celui-ci. Si votre téléviseur affiche des interférences, éloignez le téléphone sans fil de celui-ci afin de réduire les parasites.
f Piles rechargeables : Ce produit comporte des piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel. Usez de prudence lorsque vous manipulez de telles piles et veillez à ne pas les court-circuiter avec des matériaux conducteurs, tels que des bagues, bracelets et clés. La pile ou le conducteur peut surchauffer et vous brûler. Respectez la polarité adéquate entre les piles et le chargeur de piles.
f Piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel : Jetez ces piles de manière sécuritaire. N’incinérez pas et ne peercez pas les piles. Comme pour les autres piles du même type, si elles sont brûlées ou percées, des matières corrosives peuvent s’en échapper, ce qui risque de causer des brûlures ou autres blessures corporelles.
Le sceau de l’organisme de recyclage RBRC sur les piles à l’hydrure métallique de nickel signifie que le fabricant de cet appareil participe volontairement au programme industriel visant à reprendre et recycler ce type de piles lorsqu’elles ne servent plus, au sein du territoire des États-Unis et du Canada. Vous devez apporter ces piles chez un détaillant participant ou le centre de recyclage le plus près de chez vous. Ou vous pouvez composer le 1-800-8-BATTERYMD afin de connaître les endroits qui acceptent les piles à l’hydrure métallique de nickel mortes.

Mesures préventives pour les utilisateurs de stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme Stimulateurs cardiaques (ne s’applique qu’aux téléphones sans fil numériques) : 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 Étatsunis, la firme WTR recommande aux médecins :
Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques: f Ils doivent tenir le téléphone sans fil à une distance d’au moins six pouces du
stimulateur cardiaque. f 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 fonction. f 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 causé par les gens qui utilisent un téléphone sans fil à proximité de ceux-ci.
Mode ECO Lorsque le socle communique avec le combiné, le mode ECO sera activé automatiquement. Ceci réduit la consommation d’énergie selon la distance entre le socle du téléphone et le combiné.
Spécifiquement en rapport avec les répondeurs téléphoniques Enregistrement deux voies : Cet appareil n’émet pas de bips d’avertissement qui permettent de prévenir l’autre partie que vous enregistrez la conversation. Pour assurer votre conformité aux règlements fédéraux ou provinciaux en rapport avec les enregistrements des conversations téléphoniques, vous devriez informer l’autre partie lorsque vous activez l’enregistrement.
