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
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:
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
cardiac burn or puncture the battery. Like other batteries
of this type, if burned or punctured, they could
release caustic material which could cause injury.

The RBRC® seal
The RBRC® seal on the nickel-metal hydride battery
indicates that VTech Communications, Inc. is voluntarily
participating in an industry program to collect and
recycle these batteries at the end of their useful lives,
when taken out of service within the United States and
Canada.
The RBRC® program provides a convenient alternative
to placing used nickel-metal hydride batteries into
the trash or municipal waste, which may be illegal in
your area.
VTech's participation in RBRC® makes it easy for
you to drop off the spent battery at local retailers
participating in the RBRC® program or at authorized
VTech product service centers. Please call
1 (800) 8 BATTERY® for information on Ni-MH battery
recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area.
VTech's involvement in this program is part of its
commitment to protecting our environment and
conserving natural resources.

Some cordless
FCC, ACTA and IC regulations
FCC Part 15
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the requirements for a Class B digital
device under Part 15 of the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) rules. These requirements are
intended to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not
expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate
the equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation. Privacy of communications may not be
ensured when using this telephone.
To ensure safety of users, the FCC has established
criteria for the amount of radio frequency energy
that can be safely absorbed by a user or bystander
according to the intended usage of the product.
This product has been tested and found to comply
with the FCC criteria. The handset may be safely held
against the ear of the user. The telephone base shall
be installed and used such that parts of the user's body
other than the hands are maintained at a distance of
approximately 20 cm (8 inches) or more.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian
