IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT LEAD FREE, (PbF), SOLDERING If lead free solder was used in the manufacture of this product the printed circuit boards will be marked PbF. Standard leaded, (Pb), solder can be used as usual on boards without the PbF mark. When this mark does appear please read and follow the special instructions described in this manual on the use of PbF and how it might be permissible to use Pb solder during service and repair work.
1.1. Suggested PbF Solder There are several types of PbF solder available commercially. While this product is manufactured using Tin, Silver, and Copper (Sn+Ag+Cu), you can also use Tin and Copper (Sn+Cu) or Tin, Zinc, and Bismuth (Sn+Zn+Bi). Please check the manufac turer’s specific instructions for the melting points of their products and any precautions for using their product with other materials.
3. Use a conductive mat on the worktable. 4. Do not touch IC or LSI pins with bare fingers. 3. CAUTION Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommendenced by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacture’s Instructions.
5.2. Battery Charge At the time of shipment, the batteries are not charged. Please charge the batteries for about 7 hours before initial use. - When the battery has been completely charged, the charge indicator will change from red to green. - It is normal for the PS and charger to feel warm while the battery is charging.
5.3. Battery Information After your Panasonic batteries are fully charged [at 25°C]: Operation Operating Time While in use (TALK) 10 hrs approx. While not in use (Standby) 120 hrs approx. - Battery charge may be shortened depending on usage conditions and ambient temperature.
The battery strength icon will then display a correct reading. - Replace both batteries and close the cover then charge the handset for about 7 hours. Please order Panasonic P03P(Ni-MH) batteries. 6. LOCATION OF CONTROLS 6.1. Handset...
