Safety precautions

Warning

Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.

Explain their contents and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to

your children.

Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the

charger.

Only use the recommended, rechargeable batteries (¢page 30), i.e. never

use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery types as this

could result in significant health risks and personal injury.

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical

conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.

Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when

the handsfree function is activated. Otherwise you risk serious and permanent

damage to your hearing.

The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.

Do not install the charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms. The charging

cradle is not splashproof (¢page 30).

Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard

(e.g. paint shops).

If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the

user guide.

Please note

Not all of the functions described in this user guide are available in all countries.

Setting up the charging cradle

The charging cradle is designed to be operated in enclosed, dry areas at

temperatures ranging from +5 °C to +45 °C.

¤Set up the charging cradles at a central location on a flat, non-slip surface in

your house or apartment.

The phone's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to

the multitude of different varnishes and polishes used on today's furnishings,

the occurrence of marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.

Please note

Pay attention to the range of the base station.

This is up to 300 m in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 50 m inside

buildings. The range is reduced when Eco Mode (¢page 22) is activated.

cated in/on the battery

compartment.
