Appendix
About cordless telephones
Privacy: The same features that make a cordless telephone convenient create some
limitations. Telephone calls are transmitted between the telephone base and the cordless
handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that the cordless telephone conversations
could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For
this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone conversations as being as private as
those on corded telephones.
Electrical power: The telephone base 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 cordless handset if the telephone base is unplugged, switched off
or if the electrical power is interrupted.
Potential TV interference: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may
cause interference to televisions and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, do
not place the telephone base 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 often reduces or eliminates the interference.
Rechargeable batteries: Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a
short circuit 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.
Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries: Dispose of these batteries in a safe
manner. Do not burn or puncture the battery. Like other batteries of this type, if burned or
punctured, they could release caustic material which could cause injury.
