Safety precautions
Safety precautions
Warning
Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.
Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the devictoe your chil-
dren.
Use only the power adapter indicated on the device.
Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification (see
"Technical Data"). Never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other bat-
tery 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 tech-
nical conditions in your particular environment, e.g., doctor's surgery.
If you use a medical device (e.g., a pacemaker), please contact the device manufac-
turer. 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 "Technical Data").
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 hear-
ing.
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 envi-
ronment 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.
Please note
uThe device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. It is also not possible to trans-
mit emergency calls.
uEmergency numbers cannot be dialled if the keypad lock is activated!

Installing the base and charger

to +45°C.
¤Set up the base on a level, non-slip surface at a central point in the building or mount the
base on the wall (£page 7).
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:
uNever expose the telephone to the effects of heat sources, direct sunlight or other electrical
devices.
uProtect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.
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.
