Preface
Dear customer, congratulations on buying your
Grundig DECT telephone and thank you for placing
your confidence in us.
This device has been manufactured with the utmost
care. If you should have difficulties in operating it, we
recommend that you consult this user manual. You can
find more information on our website at:
http://www.grundig-dect.com
To operate the device safely and easily, please read the
following sections carefully:
Application information
This telephone is to be used for transmitting voice
messages via telephone networks. Any other use is not
permitted and is considered unfit for the intended use.
Safety information
Do not install your DECT telephone in a damp environ-
ment, such as a bathroom, washroom, kitchen etc, and
not within 1.50 metres of a source of water or outside.
This device is designed for use in temperatures of
between 5 °C and 45 °C.
Only use the power unit supplied and connect it to the
electricity mains in accordance with the installation
instructions in this user manual and the details on the
sticker regarding voltage, electrical current and
frequency. As a precaution if there is a risk of danger,
the power plug can be pulled out to disconnect the
230 volt power supply. Therefore the sockets should be
near the device and easily accessible.
This device is designed to be used for connecting to the
public telephone network. If problems should arise,
contact your nearest specialist dealer. Only use the
telephone cable supplied.
For safety reasons, never put the handset in the base
station without the battery inserted or without the lid on
the battery compartment as this could cause an electric
shock.
INFORMATION _______________________

6
To avoid damaging the handset, only use the recharge-
able battery supplied.
The used battery must be disposed of in line with the
recycling regulations in this user manual.
Your DECT telephone has a range of approx. 50
metres indoors and up to 300 metres outdoors. The
range can be affected by the proximity of metal
objects, such as a television and electrical devices.
Certain medical equipment and highly-sensitive
machines or security systems may be affected by the
transmission power of the telephone. In these cases we
recommend adhering to the safety information.
In regions greatly affected by electrical storms we rec-
ommend that you protect your telephone circuit with a
special fixture for excess voltage.
You cannot make calls with the device if there is a
power cut. Therefore keep another telephone at the
ready in the event of an emergency.
The CE label confirms that the product complies with
the 1999/5/EC regulations of the European Union
Parliament regarding wireless systems and telecommu-
nications for user protection and for preventing electro-
magnetic interference. This ensures the allocated
communication network is used properly and radio
interference is avoided.
The declaration of compliance may be looked up on
the www.grundig-dect.com website, section “support”
or can be obtained from the following address:
Sagem Communication - Customer relations depart-
ment

INITIAL SETUP________________________

Setting up/range
Place the base station somewhere central and easily
accessible where you want to use it.
Depending on the ambient conditions, the range can
be up to approx. 300 metres outdoors. It has a range
of up to 50 metres indoors depending on the space
and structure of the building.
The structure of the building can cause signal shadows
to occur. This can lead to short interruptions when
speaking due to the weak signal.
The connection breaks up temporarily when there is
insufficient field strength.
Place an anti-slip mat under the base station. The feet
on the device do not usually leave any undesirable
marks behind. Due to the variety of varnish and polish
used on furniture, we cannot completely rule out the
possibility that marks from the feet of the device are left
on any surfaces.
Grundig does not accept any liability for this type of
damage.
Operating the base station or charger outside or in
areas exposed to frost is not permitted.
The recommended ambient temperature for operating
the base station is +5 °C – +45 °C, the recommended
relative air humidity is 20 % to 75 %.
The installation location must have a mains socket
for 230 volts for the base station or the charger.
Inserting the battery in the handset
1On the back of the handset, press the top section of
the battery lid and push down.
2Plug the battery into the plug connector and insert
the battery.

Battery
Charging the battery
Before you can use your telephone, the battery must be
charged.
Put the handset into the cradle of the base station or
charger (accessories) with the keypad facing forwards.
When the battery is flat, »Ä« flashes in the handset
display. It has a charging cycle from 12 to 15 hours.
Charging status of the battery
The charging status of the battery appears in the dis-
play.
The number of bars show the charging status of the
battery (»Ä« flat, »Ü« charged). When the
battery is almost flat, the display flashes »Ä«, the
backlight for the display does not come on and a
warning signal sounds (if you have not deactivated it,
see section on “Settings”, on page 64). This also
happens if a battery that is charging is removed briefly
and then replaced. New batteries usually reach their
full capacity once they have been charged several
times. Although the battery display shows that the
battery of a handset is charged, you should take into
account that the length of normal calls and availability
time is limited at the beginning.
Operating time of the battery
The operating time of the battery in standby is up to
five days or up to ten hours for longer calls.
Service life of the battery
To increase the service life of the battery, note the
following:
– Do not short-circuit the plug.
– Use your handset as a mobile phone and do not
replace it in the base station or charger (accessories)
to be charged after every phone call.
