Maintenance
Taking care of your telephone
Your telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be
treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment.
Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to
protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not handle it with wet
hands. Do not install the telephone near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic
equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electric
appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for
many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or
a mild soap.
Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.

Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or
standing in water. If the telephone base should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU
UNPLUG THE TELEPHONE LINE CORD FROM THE WALL. Then pull the unit out by the unplugged
cord.
