To keep your telephone working and looking good, follow these
guidelines:

• Avoid putting the phone near heating appliances and devices that

generate electrical noise (for example, motors or fluorescent lamps).

• DO NOT expose to direct sunlight or moisture.

• Avoid dropping the unit and other rough treatment.

• Clean with a soft cloth.

• Never use a strong cleaning agent or abrasive powder because this will

damage the finish.

• Retain the original packaging in case you need to ship the phone at a

later date.

• Periodically clean the charge contacts on the handset and base with a

soft cloth.
