cause a fire. If the telephone line cord plug 
becomes wet, immediately pull it from the 
telephone wall jack, and do not use.
Medical
LConsult the manufacturer of any personal 
medical devices, such as pacemakers or 
hearing aids, to determine if they are 
adequately shielded from external RF 
(radio frequency) energy. (The product 
operates in the frequency range of 1.92 
GHz to 1.93 GHz, and the RF transmission 
power is 115 mW (max.).)

Note when setting up
Note for connections
LThe AC adaptor must remain 
connected at all times. (It is normal for 
the adaptor to feel warm during use.)
L The AC adaptor should be connected 
to a vertically oriented or floor-
mounted AC outlet. Do not connect 
the AC adaptor to a ceiling-mounted 
AC outlet, as the weight of the adaptor 
may cause it to become disconnected.
During a power failure
The unit will not work during a power 
failure. We recommend connecting a 
corded-type telephone (without AC 
adaptor) to the same telephone line or to 
the same telephone line jack using a 
Panasonic T-adaptor (page 4). 
Emergency power can be supplied to the 
unit by connecting a Panasonic battery 
back-up power supply noted on page 4.
Note for battery installation
LUse the supplied rechargeable 
batteries. For replacement, we 
recommend using the Panasonic 
rechargeable batteries noted on page 
4, 6.
L Wipe the battery ends ( S, T ) with a 
dry cloth.
L Avoid touching the battery ends ( S, 
T ) or the unit contacts.
Note for battery charge
LIt is normal for the handset to feel 
warm during charging.
L Clean the charge contacts of the 
handset, base unit, and charger with a 
soft and dry cloth once a month. Clean 
more often if the unit is exposed to 
grease, dust, or high humidity.
