Care
¤
Wipe the base station and handset with
a damp cloth (do not use solvent) or an
antistatic cloth.
Never use a dry cloth. This can cause
static.
Contact with liquid
Your handset is splash proof.
If it comes into contact with water, knock
the water out of the microphone opening
and remove any water on the handset
with an absorbent cloth. Your handset is
ready for use.
If your handset comes into contact with a
larger amount of liquid take the following
steps:
1. Do not switch the handset on under
any circumstances!
2. Remove the battery pack immediately.
3. Remove the headset socket cover.
4. Hold the handset horizontally with the
open battery compartment facing
down.
5. Hold the handset vertically. Tilt the
handset backwards and forwards
slightly, giving it a gentle shake each
time.
6. Dab all parts dry and then leave the
handset for at least 72 hours with the
battery compartment open and the
keypad facing down in a dry, warm
place (not in a microwave, oven or
similar).
When it has fully dried out, you will nor-
mally be able to use it again.
