Telephone calls are transmtted between the telephone base and the cordless handset by rado
waves, so there s a possblty that the cordless telephone conversatons could be ntercepted by

thnk of cordless telephone conversatons as beng as prvate as those on corded telephones.
Electrical power: The telephone base of ths cordless telephone must be connected to a workng
electrcal outlet. The electrcal outlet should not be controlled by a wall swtch. Calls cannot be
made from the cordless handset f the telephone base s unplugged, swtched off or f the electrcal

nterference to televsons and VCRs. To mnmze or prevent such nterference, do not place
the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If nterference s

elmnates the nterference.
