Care and Maintenance
Your AT-200HT Caller-ID telephone has been designed to give years
of trouble free service. To assure its longevity, please read the
following maintenance instructions.
1. Keep away from heat, high temperatures can shorten the life of the
electrical components as well as distort or melt its plastic parts.
2. Keep your telephone free of dust and moisture. If it gets wet, wipe
it dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode
electronic circuits.
3. Handle your telephone gently. Dropping it can cause serious
damage to circuitry, or the plastic case, which may result in causing
it to malfunction.
4. Do not use any type of chemical or any abrasive powder to clean the
cabinet. Use only mild detergents on a soft, damp cloth.
5. Your telephone has built-in surge protection circuits that meet or
exceed FCC requirements. However, an incident such as a
lightning strike at or near the telephone lines could cause serious
damage. If the telephone is installed in an area with frequent or
severe electrical storms, it is suggested that the telephone be
disconnected during these storms.
6. In the case of trouble with the AT-200HT, do not attempt to repair
the telephone yourself. It is the responsibility of users requiring
service to report the need for service to our Service Department.
They will make the necessary arrangements for repair or
replacement.
