ECO DECT
You are helping to protect the environment with your Gigaset AL18H.
Reduced energy consumption
Your telephone has an energy-saving adapter plug and uses less energy.
Reduced transmission power (depending on the base station)
The transmission power can only be reduced if your base station supports this function.
The transmission power of your telephone is reduced automatically:
◆ The handset's transmission power is reduced depending on the distance to the base station.
◆ The transmission power on the base station is reduced to virtually zero when only one handset is
registered and the handset is in the base station.
You can reduce the transmission power of the handset and base station even more by using Eco Mode/
Eco Mode+. For further information, please see your phone's user guide.

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.
¤ Place the charging cradle on a level, non-slip surface.
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 is activated (
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
ma
rks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.
You can also mount the charging cradle on the wall.
Please note:
◆ Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or other
electrical devices.
◆ Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.
