Contacting Emergency Services  
This handset, like any wireless phone, communicates using radio signals. As with any wireless  
phone, you may not be able to establish a connection under all conditions; therefore, you should  
not rely solely on a wireless telephone for essential, emergency communication. The key lock  
feature disables the handset keypad and prevents the accidental dialing of numbers that may  
result in nuisance calls. It also prevents accidental calls to emergency services numbers like  
911, 999, or 112.

About Your Phone  
To disable the key lock feature, press the  
key and then press Select.  
Currently, mobile IP phones do not support Enhanced 911 (E911) operation. If emergency  
services are required, it is necessary to keep the system administrator and location database  
up-to-date.  
Tips for your Comfort and Safety  
Don't cradle the handset!  
Prolonged use of the handset can lead to neck, shoulder, or back discomfort, especially if you  
cradle the handset between your ear and shoulder. If you use your phone a lot, you may find  
it more comfortable to use a headset. See the section on headset use for more information.  
Protect your hearing  
Your phone has a control for adjusting the volume of the handset receiver or headset. Because  
continuous exposure to loud sounds can contribute to hearing loss, keep the volume at a  
moderate level.

The handset is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and sends out radio  
frequency (RF) energy. The handset operates on different frequency ranges depending on  
market and employs commonly used modulation techniques:  
EU

Environmental Requirements  
Only use the handset in temperatures between 0° C to +40° C (32° F to 104° F).  
Avoid exposing the handset for direct sunlight or close to other heat sources.  
Avoid volume levels that may be harmful to your hearing. Exposure to excessive sound  
pressure from a handset's earpiece or headset may cause permanently hearing loss.  
Do not expose the handset to open flame.  
Keep the handset away from excessive heat and moisture.

example, when entering or leaving a cold/heated building on a warm/cold day.  
Protect your handset from aggressive liquids and vapors.  
The handset may retain small metal objects around the mouth cap or ear cap region.  
Keep the handset away from strong electromagnetic fields.  
Do not place a cold handset in a charger.  
Chemical Resistance  
The alpha and numeric characters printed on the exterior of the handset have been tested and  
found resistant to chipping, fading or wearing off when the handset is treated with common  
cleaners and disinfectants or perspiration. The following chemicals have shown no harmful  
effect:  
3% Hydrochloric Acid  
M-alcohol (70% Methylated Ethanol)  
60% Chlorhexidin 0.5mg/ml  
Acetone can be damaging to the plastic casing of the handset and should not be used.
