Safety information

Only use the power supply suitable for the BT

Elements range. Using an unauthorised power supply

will invalidate your guarantee and may damage the

telephone. The item code for the base mains power

supply is 028771 and the item code for the charger

mains power supply is 030989.

Use only the approved rechargeable batteries

supplied. Spare rechargeable batteries are available

from the BT Elements Helpline on 0870 605 8047.

Do not open the handset (except to replace the

handset batteries) or the base. This could expose you

to high voltages or other risks. Contact the Helpline

on 0870 605 8047 for all repairs.

If the keylock is switched on, it is NOT possible to

make calls, including to the emergency numbers

(999/112).

Radio signal transmitted between the handset and

base may cause interference to hearing aids.

It is recommended that advice from a qualified expert

be sought before using this product in the vicinity of

emergency/intensive care medical equipment.

It is recommended that if you have a pacemaker

fitted you check with a medical expert before using

this product.

Your product may interfere with other electrical

equipment, e.g. TV and radio sets, clock/alarms and

computers if placed too close. It is recommended that

you place your product at least one metre away from

such appliances to minimise any risk of interference.

Never dispose of batteries in a fire. There is a serious

risk of explosion and/or the release of highly toxic

chemicals.

Never look directly at the torch light, or shine it into

the eyes.

Cleaning

Clean the handset and base (or charger) 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 as this may cause a static shock.

Environmental

Do not expose to direct sunlight.

The handset may become warm when the batteries

are being charged or during prolonged periods of

use. This is normal. However, we recommend that to

avoid damage you do not place the product on

antique/veneered wood.

Do not stand your product on carpets or other

surfaces which generate fibres, or place it in locations

preventing the free flow of air over its surfaces.

Do not submerge any part of your product in water.

Do not expose your product to fire, explosive or other

hazardous conditions.

There is a slight chance your phone could be

damaged by an electrical storm. We recommend that

you unplug the power and telephone line cord during

an electrical storm.
