Cordless Telephone

The Radio Shack ET-506 Deluxe Cordless Telephone is an example of superior
design and craftsmanship.  These suggestions will help you care for the
telephone so you can enjoy it for years.

    Keep the telephone dry.  If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. 
    Liquids can contain minerals that corrode electronic circuits.

    Use and store the telephone only in normal temperature environments. 
    Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and
    distort or melt plastic parts.

    Handle the telephone gently and carefully.  Dropping it can damage
    circuit boards and cases and can cause the telephone to work
    improperly.

    Keep the telephone away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature
    wear of parts.

    Wipe the telephone with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
    new.  Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
    detergents to clean your telephone.

Modifying or tampering with the telephone's internal components can cause
a malfunction and invalidate your telephone's warranty and void your FCC
authorization to operate it.  If your telephone is not performing as it
should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

The telephone operates on standard radio frequencies as allocated by the
FCC.  Even though the access protection code prevents unauthorized use of
your phone line, it is possible for other radio units operating on similar
frequencies within a certain area to unintentionally intercept your
conversations and/or cause interference.  This lack of privacy can occur
with any cordless phone.

In the unlikely event that your phone causes problems on the phone line,
the phone company can temporarily discontinue your service.  If this
happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance.  If advance
notice is not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible
and advises you or your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this
telephone.  The telephone company notifies you of these changes in
advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of
your telephone service.

LIGHTNING

The telephone has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage
from surges in telephone line and power line current.  These protection
circuits meet or exceed FCC requirements.  However, lightning striking the
telephone or power lines can damage your telephone.

Lightning damage is not common.  Nevertheless, if you live in an area that
has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your phone during
storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
