Maintenance
Taking care of the telephone
The telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect the telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
The telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install
the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using
electrical appliances during storms.
Cleaning the telephone
The telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly
dampened with water or mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or standing in water. If the telephone base
should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND/OR TELEPHONE LINE CORD
FROM THE WALL. Then remove the telephone by the unplugged cords.
