contacts on the handset  
and base about once a  
month. Use a dry cloth  
or pencil eraser if necessary.  
Do not use any liquids  
or solvents.  
The rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery pack must  
be fully charged before using your phone for the  
first time. Before plugging the phone line into

A continuous power outlet is an  
AC outlet which does not have a

Base Unit antenna to the vertical position.  
Important: Do not place the power  
cord in an area where it may  
create a trip hazard or become  
chafed and create a fire or  
electrical hazard.  
MLow Battery Indicator

handset is low and needs to be  
charged, the batt LED flashes  
every 3 seconds.

the wall material where the base will  
be placed.

their appropriate anchoring  
devices, 3-15/16 inches apart.
