Safety precautions

Safety precautions
Warning
Read the safety precautions and the user manual before use. Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to your children.
Use only the power adapter supplied.
Fit only the recommended, rechargeable batteries (¢ page 46), i.e., never use a con­ventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery type as this could result in sig­nificant health risks and personal injury.
Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. Be aware of the tech­nical conditions in your particular environment, for example doctor's surgery. If you use a medical device (e.g., a pacemaker), please contact the device manufac­turer. They will be able to advise you regarding the susceptibility of the device to external sources of high frequency energy. Please refer to the "Appendix" chapter for the specifications of this Gigaset product.
Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when speaker mode is activated. Otherwise you risk serious and permanent damage to your hear­ing.
During a call, a very high call volume can be set on your handset. This setting can cause damage to the hearing of people with good hearing and is only intended for people with a hearing impairment (¢ page 39).
Your Gigaset is compatible with the majority of digital hearing aids on the market. However, perfect function with all hearing aids cannot be guaranteed. The handset may cause interference in analogue hearing aids. If you require assist­ance, please contact the hearing aid supplier.
Do not install the charger in bathrooms or shower rooms. The charger is not splash­proof.
Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard (e.g., paint shops).
If you give your phone to a third party, make sure you also give them the user guide.
Remove faulty bases from use or have them repaired by our Service team, as these could interfere with other wireless services.
Please note
u Not all of the functions described in this user guide are available in all countries. u The device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. It is also not possible to trans-
mit emergency calls.

u One Gigaset E310H handset u Two batteries u One battery cover u One charger u One power adapter u One user guide

Setting up the charger

The charger is designed for use in dry rooms in a temperature range of +5°C to +45°C.
¤ Set up the charger on a level, non-slip surface or mount the
charger on the wall (¢ page 49).
Please note
Pay attention to the range of the base. 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 (¢ page 36).
First steps
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:
u Never expose the telephone to the effects of heat sources, direct
sunlight or other electrical devices.
u Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and
fumes.

Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover

Warning
Use only rechargeable batteries (¢ page 46) recommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH i.e., never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery, as this could 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.

Please note
u After the first battery charge and discharge, you may place
your handset in the charger after every call.
u Always repeat the charging and discharging procedure if you
remove the batteries from the handset and reinsert them.
u The batteries may warm up during charging. This is not dan-
gerous.
