Battery information

After your Panasonic battery is fully charged, you can expect the following performance:

Operation

While in use (TALK)

While not in use (Standby)

While using the Clarity Booster feature (p. 21)

Operating time

Up to 5 hours

Up to 11 days

Up to 3 hours

• A fully charged battery will give you up to 5 hours of continuous talk time, or keep your handset in Standby mode to receive incoming calls for up to 11 days (if no phone calls are made). Battery power is consumed whenever the handset is off of the base unit, even when the handset is not in use. The longer you leave the handset off of the base unit, the time you can actually talk on the handset will be shortened. Actual battery performance depends on a combination of how often the handset is in TALK mode and how often it is in Standby mode.

• Clean the charge contacts of the handset and the base unit with a soft, dry cloth once a month. Clean more often if the unit is subject to grease, dust or high humidity.

Otherwise the battery may not charge properly.

• If the battery is fully charged, you do not have to place the handset on the base unit until “ Recharge battery ” is displayed and/or “ 3 ” flashes. This will maximize the battery life.

• If you want to keep the battery fully charged at all times, place the handset on the base unit when the handset is not used. The battery cannot be overcharged.

• When the Clarity Booster feature is turned on automatically or manually, battery

operating time may be shortened (p. 21).

WHEN PROGRAMMING EMERGENCY NUMBERS AND(OR) MAKING TEST

CALLS TO EMERGENCY NUMBERS:

1) Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call.

2) Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morning or late evenings.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and

(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone.

CAUTION:

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this device.

Note:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

— Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

— Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

— Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

— Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, move the cordless telephone further away from the TV or VCR. This will often reduce, or eliminate, interference.

5760MHz to 5840MHz, and the power output level can range 0.25 to 0.5 watts.)

Do not use the unit in health care facilities if any regulations posted in the area instruct you not to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF (radio frequency) energy.

• Routine care — wipe the unit with a soft cloth. Do not use benzine, thinner, or any abrasive powder. When you leave the unit unused for a long period of time, unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet.

• If there is any trouble — disconnect the unit from the telephone line and connect a known working phone. If the known working phone operates properly, have your unit repaired by one of the authorized Panasonic Factory Service Centers. If the known working phone does not operate properly, consult your telephone company.
