CARE OF YOUR HANDSET
• Avoid dropping the handset or knocking it against hard surfaces. Carry-
ing the handset in a holster or carrying case will help protect it.
• There are no serviceable parts in the handset or chargers. You should
not open the handset case or disassemble the chargers. Doing so will
void your warranty.
• Turn off the handset and unplug chargers before you clean them. Take
care not to exert undue pressure on charger electrical contacts while
wiping.
• Wiping the handset surface with a water-dampened cloth or paper
towel will remove most films or residues. If the soiling is too stubborn
for plain water, a mild detergent solution may be used. A spray cleaner
may be used with care. Do not spray at an angle. Do not allow liquid
cleaners to seep into keypad. Be sure to wipe away any detergent resi-
due with a clean water-dampened cloth. Do not immerse.
• Should the headset connector become dirty, you may experience a
scratchy or intermittent signal. To clean the connector, dip the non-
padded end of a wooden or paper cotton swab stick in isopropyl alco-
hol. Gently insert in the connector and twist, repeating several times. If
available, blow compressed air into the connector to clear debris.
• Keep the headset jack covered when it is not in use.
• Using a carrying case may help protect the surfaces and help prevent
liquids (e.g., rain) from entering into the interior of the handset.
• If your handset interior gets wet, do not try to accelerate drying with
the use of an oven or a dryer as this will damage the handset and void
the warranty. Instead, do the following:
1. Immediately power off the handset.
2. Remove the Battery Pack from handset.
3. Shake excess liquid from the handset.
4. Place the handset and Battery Pack in an upright position in an area
that is at room temperature and has good airflow.
5. Let the handset and Battery Pack dry for 72 hours before recon-
necting the Battery Pack and/or powering on the handset.
If the handset does not work after following the steps listed above,
contact your phone system administrator for servicing information.
