Questions and answers

If you have any queries about the use of your telephone, visit our website at www.gigaset.com/service 

 

for 24-hour support. The table below contains a list of common problems and possible solutions.

Care

Wipe the device with a 

damp

 cloth or an antistatic cloth. Do not use solvents or microfibre cloths. 

Never

 use a dry cloth; this can cause static. 

In rare cases, contact with chemical substances can cause changes to the device’s exterior. Due to the wide variety of 
chemical products available on the market, it was not possible to test all substances.
Impairments in high-gloss finishes can be carefully removed using display polishes for mobile phones.

Contact with liquid 

If the handset has come into contact with liquid:
1

Switch the handset off and remove the battery immediately

.

2

Allow the liquid to drain from the handset.

3

Pat all parts dry, then place the handset with the battery compartment open and the keypad facing down in a dry, 
warm place 

for at least 72 hours

 (

not

 in a microwave, oven etc.).

4

Do not switch on the handset again until it is completely dry

When it has fully dried out, you will usually be able to use it again.
