Taking care of your telephone
Your console contains sophisticated electronic parts, so you must treat it with care.
Avoid rough treatment.
Place the corded handset down gently.
Save the original packing materials to protect your console if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
You can damage your console if it gets wet. Do not use the corded handset in the rain, or handle
it with wet hands. Do not install the console near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your
own safety, take caution when using electric appliances during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your console has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years. Clean it
only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild soap.
Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
