Handling Liquid Damage
Moisture and liquid can damage your cordless phone.
If the handset or base is exposed to moisture or liquid, but only the
exterior plastic housing is affected, wipe off the liquid and use as
normal.
If moisture or liquid has entered the plastic housing (i.e. liquid can
be heard in the phone or liquid has entered the handset battery
compartment or vent openings on the base), follow these steps:
Handset
1. Remove the battery cover and disconnect the
battery.
2. Let dry for at least 3 days with the battery
disconnected and the cover off for ventilation.
3. After the handset dries, reconnect the battery
pack and replace the cover. Recharge the
battery fully (15-20 hours) before using.
IMPORTANT: You must unplug the telephone line while
recharging the battery pack to avoid charge interruption.
CAUTION! DO NOT use a microwave oven to speed up
the drying process. This will cause permanent damage
to the handset, base and the microwave oven.
