Safety precautions
!
Fit only the
recommended rechargeable batteries (page 154)
and
of the
same type
! Use no other types of batteries or non-rechargeable batteries, as
they could damage health and cause personal injury.
Ensure correct polarity when fitting rechargeable batteries, and use the bat-
tery type according to these instructions (you will see polarity symbols in the
handset's battery compartments).
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the techni-
cal conditions within the particular environment (e.g. doctor's practice).
The handset may cause an intrusive "hum" in hearing aids.
Do not install the base in bathrooms or shower rooms (page 151). The hand-
set and base are not watertight.
Drivers must not use their phones while driving (Walk and Talk function).
Switch off your phone while on board an aircraft (Walk and Talk function).
Ensure that it cannot be switched on again accidentally.
Do not use the phone in environments subject to explosion hazard
(e.g. auto paint shops).
If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the
operating manual.
Dispose of the batteries and phone in accordance with environmental regula-
tions.
