Safety precautions
Emergency numbers cannot be dialled if the key lock
(page 1) is activated!
Not all of the functions described in this user guide are
available in all countries.
ECO DECT
ECO DECT reduces power consumption by using a
power supply with low power consumption and
also reduces the transmission power of the base
station.
The transmission power of the base station is
switched off when just 1 handset is registered on
the base station!
Your handset also reduces the transmission power
depending on the distance to the base station.

shower room. The handset and base station
are not splashproof.
Do not use the telephone in environments
subject to explosion hazard (e.g. auto paint
shops).
