Safety precautions

Safety precautions

Warning

Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.

Explain their contents and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to your children.

Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base sta- $ tion or charging cradle.

Only use the recommended, rechargeable batteries (¢page 45), i.e. never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery 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 surgery.

Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when

the handsfree function is activated. 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 base station or charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms. The base station and charging cradle are not splash proof (¢page 45).

Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard (e.g. paint shops).

ƒIf you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the user guide.

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

Please note

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

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.

Instructions on how to mount the base station and charging cradle to a wall, see ¢page 48.

If you have purchased a model with multiple handsets, repeat the registration process for each handset. Handsets are assigned the lowest available internal number (1-4). If more than one handset is registered to the base station the internal handset number appears on the display, e.g. INT 2. If the internal numbers 1–4 are already assigned to other devices, the number 4 will be overwritten.

Please note
