General DECT Handset Information Guide
Notice on the use of the handsets
Like all cordless telephones, the G266 and G566 DECT handsets
use radio signals, which do not guarantee a connection under all
circumstances. Do not rely exclusively on the DECT handsets
when making indispensable calls (such as medical emergencies).
SOS function
The SOS function of the G266 and G566 does not replace
companion supervision by a colleague or other people. In case of
critical, emergency or life-threatening situations make sure that
other persons are present or that appropriate measures are taken.

Getting started
Installing the battery pack
1. Place the handset face down on a flat surface.
2. Pull the lock at the bottom of the battery compartment
cover upward and at the same time shift the cover
downwards.
3. Remove the battery compartment cover.
4. Push the battery pack into the casing.
5. Replace the battery cover.
Installing the charger
1. Place the charger on a flat surface.
2. Connect the micro-B USB connector of the USB cable to
(the back of) the charger.
3. Connect the type A USB connector to the USB AC/DC
Adapter.
4. Connect the adapter to an electrical outlet.
5. Place the handset on the charger as shown in Figure 1.

seconds the display of the handset shows:
Figure 2: Battery charging display
Attention:
The handset, if switched off, automatically switches on
when placed in the charger.
Charging a spare battery
The Gx66 Desktop Charger can be used to charge a spare battery
pack for the G266/G566. To charge a spare battery pack:
1. Place the spare battery pack in the spare battery charging
slot compartment. (Upside down and text on the battery
pack to the front.)
2. Slid the spare battery pack under the metal rim to keep it
in place.
Charging guidelines
Please read the concerning section in the DECT Handsets –
General Information Guide carefully!
Charging and operating times
Discharged batteries require 7 hours (using the spare battery slot
might take longer) to completely recharge. Completely charged
batteries provide the handset with up to 20 hours of talk time and
160 hours of standby time.
