Electrical power: The telephone base of the 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.
The RBRC® seal
The RBRC® seal on the nickel-metal hydride battery indicates that
VTech Communications, Inc. is voluntarily participating in an industry
program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their
useful lives, when taken out of service within the United States and
Canada.
The RBRC® program provides a convenient alternative to placing used
nickel-metal hydride batteries into the trash or municipal waste, which may be illegal in
your area.
VTech’s participation in RBRC® makes it easy for you to drop off the spent battery at local
retailers participating in the RBRC® program or at authorized VTech product service
centers. Please call 1 (800) 8 BATTERY™ for information on Ni-MH battery recycling and
disposal bans/ restrictions in your area. VTech’s involvement in this program is part of its
commitment to protecting our environment and conserving natural resources.
