Safety

Safety precautions

Read this user guide and the safety precautions carefully before use. Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to your children.

u Only use the mains adapter supplied. u Fit only the recommended, rechargeable

batteries, i.e. never use any other battery type or non-rechargeable batteries as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury.

u The operation of medical appliances may be

affected. Be aware of the technical conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.

u Do not hold the rear of the handset to your

ear when it is ringing. Otherwise you risk serious and permanent damage to your hearing. The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.

u Do not install the phone in a bathroom or

shower room. The handset and base station are not splashproof.

u Do not use your phone in environments with

a potential explosion hazard, e.g. paint shops.

u If you give your Gigaset to someone else,

make sure you also give them the user guide.

u Please remove faulty base stations from use

or have them repaired by Service, as they could interfere with other wireless services.
