Especially about cordless telephones
• Privacy: The same features that make a cordless phone convenient
create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the
telephone base and handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that
your cordless phone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving
equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you
should not think of cordless phone conversations as being as private as
those on corded phones.
• Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be
connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be
controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the handset if the
telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power
is interrupted.
• Power adapter: This power adapter is intended to be plugged into a
vertical wall outlet or a floor outlet.
• Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at
frequencies that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or
prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless
telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced,
moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often
reduce or eliminate the interference.
• Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either Nickel-Cadmium
or Nickel-Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling
batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting material such
as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and
cause harm. Observe proper polarity between the battery and the battery
charger.
• Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of
properly. Do not dispose of in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture.
Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release
caustic material which could cause injury.
