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. Npoeudrréapitotsoemz bpeasr ecet êtétrleépséhroienuesseumr eunntcehnadrioomt, msuapgpéo.rt ou table chancelants. L’appareil 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. Nscéoecrdudroéitnpaiotréesle,ézlpàrhioeoùnnpisqueurrseloemncnooerddnuoelaniprdeo’.aulrirmaetrnétbatuiocnh.eIrnssutarlllaezligcenteadp’palaimreeilndtaatnios nunnielnedroit 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.

» des températures extrêmes faibles ou élevées auxquelles une batterie peut

être soumise pendant l’utilisation, le stockage ou le transport;

» Remplacement d’une batterie par un type incorrect pouvant supprimer une

protection;

» mise au rebut d’une batterie dans un feu ou dans un four chaud, ou

écrasement mécanique ou coupure d’une batterie, susceptible de

provoquer une explosion;

» maintien d’une batterie dans un environnement à très haute température

pouvant provoquer une explosion ou la fuite de liquide ou de gaz

inflammables;

» batterie soumise à une pression de l’air extrêmement faible pouvant

provoquer une explosion ou la fuite de liquide ou de gaz inflammables.

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.

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. acPvailueescsedrreedcshebasarbggleeuasesbsu,lrebesrsa:.cMReealesnptispeoucutleeczzlléleassp. pLoeillaserspitaiélveaesdcoésuqoliuenacatoefinnedndutercetneleauprppailseelueettsslceuorccuhhrata- rucgfierfceuurri.etetr Les bloc-piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de nickel : Jetez ces blocs-piles de manière écologique et sécuritaire.
