For Your Safety 
General Care 
Your handset contains delicate electronic circuitry, 
magnets and battery systems. You should treat it with 
care and give particular attention to the following points: 
•  Do not allow the handset, battery or accessories to 
come into contact with liquids or moisture at any time. 
Do not immerse it in any liquid. 
•  Do not place the handset alongside computer disks, 
credit cards, travel cards or other magnetic media. 
The information contained on the disks or cards may 
be affected by the handset. 
•  Do not paint the handset. 
•  Do not leave the handset or battery in places where 
the temperature could exceed 140 ˚ F, e.g. on a car 
dashboard or a windowsill, behind glass in direct 
sunlight, etc. 
•  Do not remove the handset battery while the handset 
is switched on. 
•  Take care not to allow metal objects, such as coins or 
key rings, to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals. 
•  Do not dispose of batteries in fire. The handset’s 
Li-ION batteries may be safely disposed of at a 
Li-ION recycling point. Follow local requirements for 
recycling. 
•  Do not put the handset’s battery in your mouth, as 
battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
