Safety precautions
Safety precautions
a
Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.
Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the device to your children.
The device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. In case of a power failure it is also not
possible to make emergency calls.
Emergency numbers cannot be dialled if the keypad/display lock is activated!
Use only the power adapter indicated on the device.
Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification (see "Specifications"). Never
use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery types as this could result in significant
health risks and personal injury. Rechargeable batteries, which are noticeably damaged, must be
replaced.
Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. Be aware of the technical conditions in
your particular environment, e.g. 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 (for the specifications of your Gigaset product see "Specifications").
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.
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 phone may cause interference in analogue hearing aids (humming or whistling) or cause them
to overload. If you require assistance, please contact the hearing aid supplier.
The devices are not splashproof. For this reason do not install them in a damp environment such as
bathrooms or shower rooms.
Do not use the devices in environments with a potential explosion hazard (e.g. paint shops).
If you give your Gigaset to a third party, make sure you also give them the user guide.
Remove faulty devices from use or have them repaired by our Service team, as these could interfere
with other wireless services.
Do not use the device if the display is cracked or broken. Broken glass or plastic can cause injury to
hands and face. Send the device to our Service department to be repaired.
To prevent loss of hearing, avoid listening at high volume over long periods of time.

Contents of the package
•One handset,
One charging cradle incl. power adapter,
One battery cover (rear cover for the handset),
Two batteries,
•One user guide.
Setting up the charging cradle
The charging cradle is designed for use in closed, dry rooms within a temperature range of +5°C to +45°C.
¤ Position the base and charging cradle on a level, non-slip surface at a central point in the building or house,
or mount the charging cradle onto the wall.
¤ Position the charging cradle on a level, non-slip surface.
The device's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to the multitude of different
va
rnishes and polishes used on today's furnishings, marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.
Connecting the charging cradle
Setting up the handset for use
The display is protected by a plastic film: ¤ Remove the protective film!
Inserting the batteries
i
Never expose the telephone to heat sources, direct sunlight or other electrical devices.
Protect your telephone from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.
Pay attention to the range of the base. This is up to 50 m inside buildings and up to 300 m in
unobstructed outdoor areas. The range is reduced when Max. Range is deactivated (
¢ page 13).
a
Use only rechargeable batteries recommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH (¢ page 18), as
this could otherwise result in significant injury to health and mat
erial damage. For example, the outer
casing of the batteries could be destroyed or the batteries could explode. The telephone could also
malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the recommended type.
¤ Connect the flat plug of the power adapter to the charging
cradle .
¤ Plug the power adapter into the power socket .
If you have to remove the plug from the charging cradle again:
¤ Disconnect the power adapter from the mains power supply.
¤ Press the release button ¤ Disconnect the plug .
