If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions.
Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operation instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and often requires extensive
work by an authorized technician to restore the product to normal operation.
If the product has been dropped and the pendant has been damaged.
If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
Avoid using a telephone (other than cordless) during an electrical storm. There is a
remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. Under
certain circumstances, a spark may be created when the adapter is plugged into the
power outlet, or when the pendant is replaced in its cradle. This is a common event
associated with the closing of any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the phone
into a power outlet, and should not put a charged pendant into its cradle, if the phone is
located in an environment containing concentrations of flammable or flame-supporting
gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark in such an environment could
create a fire or explosion. Such environments might include: medical use of oxygen
without adequate ventilation; industrial gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.);
a leak of natural gas; etc.
The power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount
position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into a
ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

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:
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 by standers with pacemakers from other
persons using wireless telephones.
Note: The CareLine
TM
transmitter is a wireless telephone, and it should not be used in the
pendant form (hanging from a necklace over the heart) by persons wearing pacemakers.
Pacemaker patients should use the CareLine
TM
product in belt-clip form only.
Operating range
This cordless telephone operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this pendant and telephone base can
communicate over only a certain distance - which can vary with the locations of the
telephone base and pendant, the weather, and the layout of your home or office.
If there is a call while the pendant is out of range, it may not ring, or if it does ring,
the call may not connect well when you press . Move closer to the telephone base, then
press to answer the call.
If the pendant moves out of range during a telephone conversation, there may be
interference. To improve reception, move closer to the telephone base.
ECO mode
This power conserving technology reduces power consumption for optimal battery
performance. The ECO mode activates automatically whenever the pendant is
synchronized with the telephone base.
