About cordless telephones
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between
the telephone base and the cordless handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that the cordless telephone conversations could be
intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone
conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.
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 cordless handset if the telephone base is unplugged or switched
off, or if the electrical power is interrupted.
Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to televisions 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 nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not
to create a short circuit 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: Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of
this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.
