Battery

About cordless telephones

• CAUTION: Use Only Supplied Battery.

• 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.

• Do not dispose of the battery in a fire.

Check with local waste management

codes for special disposal instructions.

• Do not open or mutilate the battery.

Released electrolyte is corrosive and

may cause burns or injury to the eyes

or skin. The electrolyte may be toxic if

swallowed.

• Exercise care in handling batteries in

order not to create a short circuit with

conductive materials.

• Charge the battery provided with this

product only in accordance with the

instructions and limitations specified in

this manual.

• 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.

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 cardiac

pacemakers. Supported by the U.S.

Food and Drug Administration, WTR

recommends to physicians that:

• Potential TV interference: Some

cordless 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.

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.

• 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 burn or

puncture the battery. Like other

batteries of this type, if burned or

punctured, they could release caustic

material which could cause injury.
