Liquid Damage - Uniden DSS3435+1 Owner's Manual

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 the steps below:
Handset
1. Remove the battery cover and leave it off for ventilation.
2. Disconnect the battery pack. Leave the battery cover off and the
battery pack disconnected for at least 3 days.
3. Once the handset is completely dry, reconnect the battery pack
and the battery cover.
4. Recharge the handset's battery pack for 15 to 20 hours before
using.
IMPORTANT: You must unplug the telephone line while recharging the battery packs 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. After following these steps, if your cordless telephone does not work,
please, visit the customer support page at www.uniden.com.au (Australian Model) or www.uniden.co.nz (New
Zealand model).
Base
1. Disconnect the AC adapter from
the base, cutting off electrical
power.
2. Disconnect the telephone cord
from the base.
3. Let dry for at least 3 days.
