    personal injury.
    1. Read and understand all instructions.
    2. Follow all warnings and instructions 
    marked on the product.
    3. Unplug the product from power outlets 
    before cleaning. Do not use liquid or 
    aerosol cleaners. Use a moist cloth for 
    cleaning.
    4. Do not use the product near water, for 
    example near a bathtub, wash bowl, 
    kitchen sink, etc.
    5. Place the product securely on a stable 
    surface. Serious damage and/or injury 
    may result if the product falls.
    6. Do not cover slots and openings on the 
    product. They are provided for 
    ventilation and protection against 
    overheating. Never place the product 
    near radiators, or in a place where 
    proper ventilation is not provided.
    7. Use only the power source marked on 
    the product. If you are not sure of the 
    type of power supplied to your home, 
    consult your dealer or local power 
    company.
    8. Do not place objects on the power 
    cord. Install the product where no one 
    can step or trip on the cord.
    9. Do not overload power outlets and 
    extension cords. This can result in the 
    risk of fire or electric shock.
    10. Never push any objects through slots 
    in the product. This may result in the 
    risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill

    11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do 
    not disassemble the product. Take the 
    product to an authorized service center 
    when service is required. Opening or 
    removing covers may expose you to 
    dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause 
    electric shock when the product is 
    subsequently used.
    12. Unplug the product from power outlets 
    and refer servicing to an authorized 
    service center when the following 
    conditions occur:
    A. When the power cord is damaged 
    or frayed.
    B. If liquid has been spilled into the 
    product.

    authorized service center.
    E. If the product has been dropped or 
    physically damaged.
    F. If the product exhibits a distinct 
    change in performance.
    13. During thunderstorms, avoid using 
    telephones except cordless types. 
    There may be a remote risk of an 
    electric shock from lightning.
    14. Do not use the product to report a gas 
    leak, when in the vicinity of the leak.
    SAVE THESE 
    INSTRUCTIONS
    CAUTION:

    LDo not touch the plug with wet hands.
    LThe AC adaptor is used as the main 
    disconnect device. Ensure that the AC 
    outlet is installed near the product and is 
    easily accessible.
    LTo prevent electric shock, use only the 
    included audio cable with the

    shock. Confirm that smoke has stopped 
    emitting and contact the Panasonic Call Center at 1-800-211-PANA (1-800-211-
    7262).
    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 2.402 
    GHz to 2.48 GHz, and the power output 
    is 125 mW (max.).) Do not use the 
    product 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.

    For best performance
    Base unit location/noise
    The base unit and other compatible 
    Panasonic units use radio waves to 
    communicate with each other.
    For maximum distance and noise-free 
    operation, we recommend the following:
    LPlacing the base unit in a HIGH and 
    CENTRAL location with no obstructions 
    such as walls.
    LRaising the antennas vertically.
    LPlacing the product away from electrical 
    appliances.
    LIf you use the handset near other 
    electrical appliances (microwave, 
    wireless LAN appliance, etc.), noise may 
    be heard. Move away from those 
    appliances and closer to the base unit.
    LIf you use the handset near another 
    cordless phone’s base unit, noise may 
    be heard. Move away from the other 
    cordless phone’s base unit and closer to 
    your base unit.
    Environment
    LKeep the product away from electrical 
    noise generating devices, such as 
    fluorescent lamps and motors.
    LThe product should be kept free from 
    excessive smoke, dust, high 
    temperature, and vibration.
    LThe product should not be exposed to 
    direct sunlight.
    LDo not place heavy objects on top of the 
    product.
    LWhen you leave the product unused for 
    a long period of time, unplug the product 
    from the power outlet.
    LThe product should be kept away from 
    heat sources such as heaters, kitchen 
    stoves, etc. It should not be placed in 
    rooms where the temperature is less 
    than 5 °C (41 °F) or greater than 40 °C (104 °F). Damp basements should also 
    be avoided.
    LThe maximum calling distance may be 
    shortened when the product is used in 
    the following places: Near obstacles 
    such as hills, tunnels, underground, near 
    metal objects such as wire fences, etc.
    LOperating the product near electrical 
    appliances may cause interference. 
    Move away from the electrical 
    appliances.

    Setting up the base unit
    Connecting the AC adaptor and 
    telephone line cord
    Connect the telephone line cord until it 
    clicks into the base unit (A) and telephone 
    line jack (B). Connect the AC adaptor cord 
    by pressing the plug firmly (C).
    LUse only the included Panasonic AC 
    adaptor PQLV206.
    Note:
    LThe AC adaptor must remain connected 
    at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor 
    to feel warm during use.)
    LThe 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.
    LThe unit will not work during a power 
    failure. We recommend connecting a 
    corded telephone to the same telephone 
    line or to the same telephone jack using 
    a Panasonic T-adaptor (page 4).
    If you subscribe to a DSL service
    Please attach a noise filter (contact your 
    DSL provider) to the telephone line 
    between the base unit and the telephone 
    line jack in the event of the following:
    – Noise is heard during conversations.
    – Caller ID features (page 27) do not 
    function properly.
