(430-8005)                 Precautions                Faxback Doc. # 19867

ON POWER SOURCE

    Before initial use, insert the battery pack into the base unit and
    charge it for 10 hours.

    Operate the base unit only on 9V DC. Use the AC power adapter supplied
    with the unit. Do not use any other AC power adapters as they may cause
    malfunction.

    Connect the base unit to an AC outlet which has a continuous power
    supply.  Avoid outlets where power may be cut off.

    Store the battery pack at a temperature between 5 (degrees) C (41
    [degrees] F) and 35 (degrees) C (95 [degrees] F) for best performance.

ON INSTALLATION

Do not expose the base unit to:

    heat sources such as radiators or air ducts.

    extremely low temperatures.

    direct sunlight.

    excessive dust.

    moisture or rain.

    mechanical vibration or shock.

Do not place the base unit on a sloping surface.

ON MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the cabinets

    Clean the cabinets with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water or a
    mild detergent solution.  Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring
    powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzene as they may damage the
    finish of the cabinet.

Cleaning the battery terminals

    If the terminals (metal parts on the battery pack) are soiled, the
    battery life will become shorter.  When this occurs, repeatedly attach
    and remove the battery from the battery compartment.  This will improve
    the contact of the battery pack and the battery compartment of the
    cordless handset or the base unit. Also, wipe the terminals with a soft
    cloth or paper.

ON POWER FAILURE

    During a power interruption, the base unit does not operate, and a
    phone conversation cannot be made on the cordless handset.

    If backup batteries are not installed or the batteries are dead, then
    the "P" indicator will flash in the message counter as soon as
    power is restored following a power interruption,  This means that the
    greeting message, any recorded messages, and the current day and time
    have all been cleared.  In this case set and record all these again.
