Never use a dry cloth as this may
cause a static shock.
Environmental
Do not expose to direct sunlight.
The product may heat up when
the batteries are being recharged.
This is normal. However, we
recommend that you do not place
the product on antique/veneered
wood to avoid damage.
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 and do not
use it in damp conditions, such
as bathrooms.
Do not expose your product to
fire, explosive or other hazardous
conditions.
There is a slight chance that your
phone could be damaged by an
electrical storm. We recommend
that you unplug the power and
telephone line cord for the duration
of the storm.
Battery performance
The charge capacity of
rechargeable batteries will reduce
with time as they wear out, so
reducing talk/standby time of
the handset. Eventually they will
need to be replaced. New
batteries can be obtained from
the Helpline on 08706 058 047.
After charging your handset for
the first time, subsequent
charging time for the batteries is
approximately 6-8 hours a day.
Batteries and case may become
warm during charging, this is
normal.
Under ideal conditions, the
handset batteries should give
about 12 hours talktime or 150
hours standby on a single charge.
(This does not mean you can
unplug the base station or leave
it for this length of time without
charge.)
Please note, however, that new
NiMH batteries do not reach full
capacity until they have been in
normal use for several days.
