Your cordless headset contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be treated with care. Avoid rough treatment. Place the headset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect your headset if you ever need to ship it.

Your headset can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the headset outdoors in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the headset charger near a sink, bathtub or shower.

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equip-

ment. For your own safety, take caution when using electrical appliances during storms.

Your headset 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 a 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 headset charger should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORD FROM THE WALL, then pull the unit out by the unplugged cords. 29 29

When using your equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury, including the following:

There may be a slight chance of electric shock from lightning.

Under certain circumstances, a spark may be created when the adapter is plugged into the power outlet, or when the headset is replaced in its cradle. This is a common event associated with the closing of any electrical circuit. The user should not plug the headset charger into a power outlet, and should not put a charged headset into the cradle, if the headset charger is located in an environment containing concentrations of ammable or ame-supporting gases, unless there is adequate ventilation. A spark in such an environment could create a re or explosion. Such environments might include: medical use of oxygen without adequate ventilation;

industrial gases (cleaning solvents; gasoline vapors; etc.); a leak of natural gas;

etc.

For example, do not use it in a wet basement or shower, or next to a swimming pool, bathtub, kitchen sink, or laundry tub. Do not use liquids or aerosol sprays for cleaning. If the product comes in contact with any liquids, unplug any line or power cord immediately. Do not plug the product back in until it has dried thoroughly.

where no one can trip over any line or power cords. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.

If you cannot solve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the section on pages 40-42. Do not open this product except as may be directed in your users manual. Opening the product or reassembling it incorrectly may expose you to hazardous voltage or other risks.

Do not burn or puncture batteries they contain caustic chemicals.

The same features that make a cordless headset convenient create some limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the headset charger and the headset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that your cordless headset conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless headset.

The headset charger of this cordless headset must be connected to a working electrical outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch.

Some cordless headsets operate at frequencies that may cause interference to TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the headset charger of the cordless headset near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless headset farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

This product contains lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conductive 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.

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. 31 31

The RBRC Seal means that the manufacturer is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle lithium-ion 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. You may call 1-800-8-BATTERY for locations accepting spent Li-ion batteries. RBRC and 1-800-8-BATTERY are registered trademarks of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation. CAUTION

There may be a risk of explosion if you use a wrong type of battery. Use only the supplied rechargeable battery or replacement battery (model BT191665). Change this product's batteries only in accordance with the instructions and limitations specied in this manual. As with any batteries, do not allow conductive materials such as rings, bracelets or keys to come in contact with the metallic parts of the battery. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm. Do not open or damage the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause injury to the eyes or skin. The electrolyte may be toxic if swallowed. Do not dispose of the batteries in a re. Check with local waste management codes for special disposal instructions. To prevent re or shock hazard, do not expose this product to water or any type of moisture. Observe proper polarity orientation between the battery and metallic contacts. Do not disassemble your headset. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer to qualied service personnel for servicing. For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet^pshall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless devices):

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

Should keep digital cordless devices at least six inches from the pacemaker. Should NOT place digital cordless devices directly over the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is turned ON. Should use the digital cordless device at the ear opposite the pacemaker. WTRs evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders with pacemakers from other persons using digital cordless devices.
