structions on the back cover of the memory  
card. To view it, lift off the memory card.  
When you have finished using the memory  
card, replace it and then replace the clear  
plastic cover.  
LIGHTNING  
Your telephone has built-in protection circuits  
to reduce the risk of damage from surges in  
telephone line current. However, lightning  
striking the telephone line can damage your  
telephone.  
CARE  
Lightning damage is not common. However,  
if you live in an area that has severe electri-  
cal storms, we suggest you unplug your  
phone when storms approach to reduce the  
possibility of damage.  
To enjoy your phone for a long time, keep it  
dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.  
Use and store the phone only in normal tem-  
perature environments. Handle the phone  
gently and carefully; do not drop it. Keep the  
phone away from dust and dirt. Wipe the  
phone with a damp cloth occasionally to  
keep it looking new.  
Modifying or tampering with the phone’s in-  
ternal components can cause a malfunction  
and might invalidate its warranty and void  
your FCC authorization to operate it. If your  
phone is not working properly, take it to your  
RadioShack store for assistance. If the trou-  
ble is affecting the telephone lines, the  
phone company can ask you to disconnect  
your phone until the problem is resolved.  
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO  
KNOW  
In the unlikely event that your phone causes  
problems on the phone line, the phone com-  
pany can temporarily discontinue your ser-  
vice.  
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 of  
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.
