Telephone calls are transmitted between the base and the handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless phone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless phone conversations as being as private as those on corded phones. Electrical Power: The base unit 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 handset if the base unit 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 TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the base unit 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. (Applies to 25-channel cordless phones only.) Rechargeable Batteries: This product contains either Nickel-

Cadmium or Nickel-Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery 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. 2 91-005229-080-000.qxd 4/8/05 12:10 PM Page 3 Nickel-Cadmium Rechargeable Batteries: Must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of in household garbage. Do not burn or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury. and collect The RBRC Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to recycle Nickel-Cadmium rechargeable batteries when taken out of service within the United States. These batteries may be taken to a participating local retailer of replacement batteries or recycling center. Or you may call 1 800 8BATTERY for locations accepting spent Nickel-Cadmium Batteries. Nickel-Metal Hydride 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. Precautions for Users of Implanted Cardiac Pacemakers Cardiac Pacemakers (applies only to 900 MHz Digital Cordless Telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the interference between portable wireless telephones and implanted cardiac pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, WTR had recommended to physicians that:

PACEMAKER PATIENTS Should keep wireless phones at least six inches from the pacemaker Should NOT place wireless phones directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON Should use the wireless phone at the ear opposite the pacemaker WTRs evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using wireless phones. 3 91-005229-080-000.qxd 4/8/05 12:10 PM Page 4 Especially About Telephone Answering Systems Two-Way Recording: This unit does not sound warning beeps to let the other party know that the call is being recorded.

If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part 68 rules and with Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information. 1 Product identifier and REN information The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things, an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). This information must be provided to your local telephone company upon request. For equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is preceded by the phrase FCC Reg No. and the REN is listed separately. For equipment approved after that date, the product identifier is preceded by US and a colon (:), and the REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal point as the sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ would indicate an REN of 0.3.

In most, but not all areas, the sum of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. You may want to contact your local telephone company for more information. 2 Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and the telephone network must comply with the applicable Part 68 rules and technical requirements adopted by ACTA.
