1 Safety Information
Please read this operating instruction manual thoroughly.
Intended use
The telephone is suitable for telephoning within a public telephone network system. Any other use is
considered unintended use. Unauthorised modification or reconstruction is not permitted. Under no
circumstances open the device or complete any repair work yourself.
Installation location
Prevent excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibration, chemicals, moisture, heat and direct sunlight.
Do not use the handset in potentially explosive areas.
Power adapter plug
Attention: Only use the power adapter plug supplied because other power supplies could damage
the telephone. Ensure access to the power adapter plug is not obstructed by furniture or such.
Rechargeable batteries
Attention: Never throw batteries into a fire. Only use batteries of the same type. Pay attention to
correct polarity. Incorrect polarity of the batteries represents a risk of explosion during charging.
Power failure
The telephone cannot be used to make calls in the event of a power failure. Always keep a wired telephone
which operates without an external power supply available in case of emergency situations.
Medical equipment
Attention: Never use the telephone in the vicinity of medical equipment. Effects on such equipment
cannot be fully ruled out.
DECT1telephones can cause an unpleasant humming sound in hearing aids.
Disposal
In order to dispose of your device, take it to a collection point provided by your local public waste
authorities (e.g. recycling centre). The adjacent symbol indicates that the device must not be
disposed of in normal domestic waste! According to laws on the disposal of electronic and electrical
devices, owners are obliged to dispose of old electronic and electrical devices in a separate waste
container.
Batteries must be disposed of at the point of sale or at the appropriate
collection points provided by the public waste authorities.

supply SW−075020EU (Input 100~240 VAC, Output 7.5 VDC, 150 mA). The adaptor input power
without load is approx. 0.2 W.
The average efficiency is approx. 66 %.
The electrical consumption of the charger is:
− without handset charging: approx. 0.2 W
− during charging of the handset: approx. 1.2 W

Charging the batteries
Before the handset is used for the first time, insert it in the base/charging station for at least 24 hours.
When the handset is inserted in the base/charging station properly, you will hear an acoustic confirmation
signal and the charge control lamp lights up. The handset warms up during the charging process. This is
normal and does not represent a risk. Do not charge the handset with charging units from other
manufacturers.
The current battery charge status is indicated in the display:
Full Half empty Low Empty
Setting the display language
Select a language (cf. "Menu Structure"):
Menü > Einstellungen > Mobilteil−Einst. > Sprache >... ( Menu > Settings > Set Handset > Language >...)
Setting the time and date on the handset
The time and date are set via the menu. Refer to Page 13 for the sequence of menu option selections.
Automatic answering
If this function is activated, an incoming call is taken when the handset is removed from the base station. This
function can be activated or deactivated via the menu. Refer to Page 14 for the sequence of menu option
selections.
Private branch exchanges
The information on Page 15 explains how to install your telephone in a private branch exchange.
Low−radiation (ECO mode) (single pack only)
When the handset is in the base station, the level of radiation is considerably lower than that
of standard DECT cordless telephones when in Standby mode. In talk mode, radiation is reduced
(depending on the distance between the handset and base station).
Default setting = ECO Mode →Off
The telephone can be set up so that the radiation frequency is reduced; Page 14.
If necessary, you can increase the range of the telephone system by switching ECO mode off;
Page 14 (ECO Mode →Off).
