Safety precautions
Caution:
Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use. Explain their contents to your children, 
and the potential hazards associated with using the phone.
Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the charg-
ing cradle.
Fit only the recommended, rechargeable batteries (page 28)! Donot use any 
other battery type or non-rechargeable batteries as this could result in signifi-
cant health risks and personal injury.
Insert rechargeable batteries as indicated by their polarity symbols, and use 
them according to this user guide (polarity symbols can be seen in the handset's 
battery compartments).
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical 
conditions in your particular environment (e.g. doctor's surgery).
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.
Do not install the charging cradle in bathrooms or showers. The handset and 
charging cradle are not waterproof (page 26).
Switch off your phone (incl. Walky-Talky function) while on board an aircraft. 
Ensure that it cannot be switched on again accidentally.
Do not use the phone in environments subject to explosion hazard 
(e.g. paint workshops).
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.
