Safety precautions
Warning:
Be sure to read this user guide and the safety precautions on the CD before using your telephone.
Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to your children.
> Use only the supplied power adapters, as specified on the back of the base or charger.
Use only the cables supplied for fixed line and LAN connection and connect these to the intended port only.
> Use only the recommended, rechargeable batteries, as this could otherwise result in significant health
risks and personal injury. For example, the outer casing of the batteries could be damaged or 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 rechargeable batteries with the correct polarity and use them in accordance with the user guide
(polarity symbols are displayed in or on the handset battery compartment).
> Batteries should not be disposed of in general household waste. Observe the local waste disposal regula-
tions, details of which can be obtained from your local authority or the dealer you purchased the product
from.
> Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. 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 handsfree mode is activated.
Otherwise you risk serious and permanent damage to your hearing.
Your Gigaset is compatible with the majority of digital hearing aids on the market. However, perfect func-
tion with all hearing aids cannot be guaranteed.
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming or whistling noise in hearing aids or cause them to overload. If you require assistance, please contact the hearing aid supplier.
> Do not install the base and charger in bathrooms or shower rooms. The handset, base and charger are not
splashproof.
> The charger and base are designed for use in dry rooms in a temperature range of +5°C to +45°C.
> Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard, e.g., paint shops.
> Never expose the telephone to heat sources, direct sunlight or other electrical appliances.
> Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.
> If you give your Gigaset to a third party, make sure that you also give them the user guide.
> Remov e fau lty base s fro m use o r hav e them repa ired b y our Service team, as they could interfere with other
wireless services.
> All electrical and electronic products should be disposed of separately from general household waste using
designated local authority sites.
If a product displays this symbol of a crossed-out rubbish bin, the product is subject to
European Directive 2002/96/EC.
Correct disposal and separate collection of used equipment will help to prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health. They are a prerequisite for the re-use and recycling of used electrical and electronic equipment.
For further information on disposing of your used equipment, please contact your local
authority, your refuse collection service or the dealer you purchased the product from.
> Please note that only terminals that are operated in-house (inside buildings) may be connected to the ana-
logue TAE connection.

Data protection notice
When the device is connected to the router, it automatically contacts the Gigaset support server to make it
easier for you to configure the devices and to enable communication with the Internet services.
For this purpose, every device sends the following device-specific information once every day:
> Serial number/item number
> MAC address
> Private IP address for the Gigaset in the LAN/its port numbers
> Device name
> Software version
On the support server, this information is linked to the existing device-specific information:
> Gigaset.net phone number
> System-related/device-specific passwords
Further information about the Gigaset.net service data saved can be found on the Internet at:
www.gigaset.net/privacy-policy
Connect one Ethernet cable plug to the
LAN socket at the side of the base.
Insert the second Ethernet cable plug
into a LAN socket on the router.
As soon as the cable connecting the phone and router is
plugged in and the router is switched on, the button lights
up on the front of the base (paging button).
Use the Ethernet cable supplied.
