Room Monitor

You can use any Gigaset SL 30 handset to monitor a

room. If a certain noise level is reached (for example a

baby crying or a door opening) the handset will automa-

tically dial the number you stored. When you answer

the call you will hear the noises in the room being mo-

nitored. The distance from the handset to the object or

space being monitored should be at least 3–6 ft.

The number you store can be:

●An internal number - An additional registered hand-

set required.

●An external number - A cell phone number or

another fixed network number where you can be

contacted (i.e. your neighbor’s home number).

Incoming Calls on the Handset Set to Room

Monitor

Incoming calls on the handset being used as the room

monitor:

●Signaled without the ringer

●The call is only displayed.

●The keypad and display are not illuminated.

If you use an external telephone number for the

room monitor you should inform the owner of the

telephone so that the call from the room monitor

is answered.

This feature considerably reduces the operating

time of the handset being used as the room mo-

nitor.

could void the FCC authority to operate the equipment. This includes the addition of any external antenna

device.

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the

bottom of the base station is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the

format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.

A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network nust comply

with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord

and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a compatible modular jack

that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details.

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive

RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but

no all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may

be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products

approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format

US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (

e.g.

, 03 is a REN of

0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.

If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance,

that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn’t practical, the

telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to

file a complaint with the FCC if you belive it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could

affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide advance notice

in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service. If you experience

device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,

including interference that may cause undesired operation. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. Some cordless telephones

operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TV’s and VCR’s; to minimize or prevent such

interference, the system base should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is

experienced, moving the base farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the

interference.
