Maintenance

Taking care of your telephone
Your telephone contains sophisticated electronic
parts, so it must be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save the original
packing materials to protect your telephone if
you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
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
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power
surges harmful to electronic equipment. For
your own safety, take caution when using
electrical appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
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 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 NETWORK CABLE
FROM THE WALL. Then remove the telephone
by the unplugged cords.
