Setting up the handset for use

The display is protected

by a plastic film.

Please remove the

protective film!

Instructions on how to connect the charg-

ing cradle and mount it on the wall (if

required) can be found at the end of this

user guide.

Inserting the batteries

Insert the batteries the right way round

(see figure).

The polarity is indicated in/on the bat-

tery compartment.

Closing the battery cover

First, align the notches on the side of

the battery cover with the protrusions

on the inside of the housing.

Then press the cover until it clicks into

place.

Attaching the belt clip

There are notches for attaching the belt

clip on the side of the handset at the same

height as the display.

Press the belt clip onto the back of the

handset so that the protrusions on the

belt clip engage with the notches.

Opening the battery cover

If fitted, remove the belt clip.

Place your fingertip in the cavity on the

casing and pull the battery cover

upwards.

Warning:

Use only the rechargeable batteries recom-

mended by Gigaset Communications GmbH *

(page 30). Never use a conventional (non-

rechargeable) battery or other battery types as

this could result in significant health risks and

personal injury. For example, the batteries

could explode. The phone could also malfunc-

tion or be damaged as a result of using batter-

ies that are not of the recommended type.
