Operating Range

This cordless telephone operates with the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and
telephone base can communicate over only a certain distance, which can vary
with the locations of the telephone base and handset, the weather, and the
layout of your home or office.
If the handset moves out of range during a telephone conversation, there
might be interference.
To improve reception, move closer to the telephone base.

Maintenance

Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts and must be
treated with care.
Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect
your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the handset
outdoors in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the telephone
base near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic
equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electrical appliances
during storms.
Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for
many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a
mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when
you are wet or standing in the water. If the telephone base should fall into the
water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND
TELEPHONE LINE CORD FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by the
unplugged cords.
