IMPORTANT
This equipment is not designed for making
emergency telephone calls when the power
fails. Alternative arrangements should be
made for access to emergency services.
Safety
Only use the power supply suitable for the
BT Glide range. Using an unauthorised
power supply will invalidate your guarantee
and may damage the telephone.
For the handset, use only Li-ion 3.7 V
1150mAh battery packs. Never use other
batteries as this could lead to a short circuit
or destroy the battery casing.
Do not open the handset (except to replace
the handset battery). This could expose you
to high voltages or other risks. Contact the
BT Glide Helpline on 0870 605 8047 for all
repairs.
Radio signals transmitted between the
handset and base may cause interference to
hearing aids.
It is recommended that advice from a qualified
medical expert be sought before using this
product in the vicinity of emergency/intensive

It is recommended that if you have a
pacemaker fitted you check with a medical
expert before using this product.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire. There is
a serious risk of explosion and/or the
release of highly toxic chemicals.
Your product may interfere with other
electrical equipment, eg. TV and radio sets,

recommended that you place your product at
least 1 metre away from such appliances to
minimise any risk of interference.
Cleaning
Simply clean the handset and base with a
damp (not wet) cloth, or an anti-static wipe.
Never use household polish as this will
damage the product. Never use a dry cloth
