such as
CaviWipes™, CaviWipes™ XL, Cavicide® or Sani-Wipes®, Sani-Cloth, Super Sani-Cloth® and Sani-

• Should the headset connector become dirty, you may experience a scratchy or intermittent signal.
To clean the connector, dip the non-padded end of either a wooden or paper handled cotton
swab in isopropyl alcohol. Gently insert in the connector and twist, repeating several times. If
available, blow compressed air into the connector to clear debris.
• Keep the headset jack covered when not in use.
• Using a carrying case may help protect the surfaces and help prevent liquids (rain, etc.) from
entering into the interior of the handset. This product is not waterproof, and exposing the unit to
liquids may result in permanent damage to the unit.
• If your wireless telephone interior gets wet, do not try to accelerate drying with the use of an
oven or a dryer as this will damage the wireless telephone and void the warranty. Instead, do the
following:
1 Immediately power off the wireless telephone.
2 Remove Battery Pack from wireless telephone.
3 Shake excess liquid from the wireless telephone.
4 Place the wireless telephone and Battery Pack in an area that is at room temperature and has
good airflow.
5 Let the wireless telephone and Battery Pack dry for 72 hours before reconnecting the Battery
Pack and/or powering on the wireless telephone.
If the wireless telephone does not work after following the steps listed above, contact your dealer for
servicing information.
