Safety precautions

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

Only use the mains unit supplied.

$

Fit only the recommended, rechargeable
batteries

(¢ page 12), i.e. never use a conven-

tional (non-rechargeable) battery or other batter y
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 sur-

gery.
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.

Do not install the phone in a bathroom or shower
room. The handset and base station are not
splashproof.

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.

ƒ

Please remove faulty base stations from use or
have them repaired by our service, as they could
interfere with other wireless services.

Disposal

Batteries should not be disposed of in general
household waste. Observe the local waste dis
posal regulations, details of which can be obtained
from your local authority.
All electrical and electronic products should be
disposed of separately from the municipal waste
stream via designated collection facilities
appointed by the government or the local author
ities.
This crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on the prod­uct means the product is covered by the European
Directive 2002/96/EC..
The correct disposal and separate collection of
your old appliance will help prevent potential neg
ative consequences for the environment and
human health. It is a precondition for reuse and
recycling of used electrical and electronic equip
ment.
For more detailed information about disposal of
your old appliance, please contact your local
council refuse centre or the original supplier of the
product.

Emergency numbers cannot be dialled if the keypad lock
(

¢ page 1) is activated!

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

Care

Wipe down the base station and handset with a
damp cloth (no solvents) or an antistatic cloth. Never
use a dry cloth. This can cause static.

Contact with liquid

!

If the handset should come into contact with liquid:

◆ Switch the handset off and remove the batteries

immediately.

◆ Allow the liquid to drain from the handset.

◆ Pat all parts dry, then with the battery compart-

ment open and the keypad facing down place the
handset in a dry, warm place for at least 72
(not in a microwave, oven etc.).

◆ Do not switch on the handset again until it is

completely dry.

When it has fully dried out, you will normally be able
to use it again.

Reduced energy consumption

Your telephone has an energy-saving adapter plug
and uses less energy.

Reduced transmission power

The transmission power of your telephone is
reduced automatically:

First steps

Check the pack contents

◆ One Gigaset A680/A685 base station,

◆ one mains adapter,

◆ one Gigaset A68H handset,

◆ one phone cord,

◆ two batteries,

◆ one battery cover,

◆ one user guide.

If you have purchased a model with multiple handsets, the package should contain two bat­teries, a battery cover and a charging cradle with mains adapter for each additional handset.

Setting up the base station and charging cradle (if included)

The base station and charging cradle are designed for use in enclosed dry rooms with a tem­perature range of +5 °C to +45 °C.

¤ Set up the base station at a central location on a flat, non-slip surface in your house or

apartment.

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 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:

◆ Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or other elec-

trical devices.

◆ Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.

Connecting the base station

¤ First connect the mains adapter 1.
¤ Then connect the telephone jack 2 and

insert the cables into the cable ducts.

Please note:

◆ The mains adapter must always be con-

nected, as the phone will not operate

without mains connection.

◆ Only use the mains adapter and phone

cord supplied. Pin connections on tele
phone cables can vary.

Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover

Warn ing

Use only the rechargeable batteries recommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH
(¢ page 12). Never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery types
as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury. For example, the batter­ies could explode. The phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using
batteries that are not of the recommended type.

¤ Insert the batteries the right way
