Gigaset A580 IP 

Simple step-by-step installation

Only use the mains adapters supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base station or charging 
cradle.

Only use the recommended, rechargeable batteries, i.e. never use a conventional (non-rechargea-
ble) battery or other battery types as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury. 
For example, the outer casing of the battery could be destroyed or the batteries could explode. The 
phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the recom-
mended type.

Insert rechargeable batteries with the correct polarity, and use them in accordance with the user guide 
(polarity symbols can be seen in or on the handset's battery compartment).

Batteries should not be disposed of in general household waste. Observe the local waste disposal 
regulations, details of which can be obtained from your local authority or the dealer you purchased 
the product from.

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical conditions in your 
particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.

Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when the handsfree function is 
activated. Otherwise you risk serious and permanent damage to your hearing.
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.

Do not install the base station or charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms. The handset, base 
station and charging cradle are not splashproof.

The charging cradle and base station are designed for use in enclosed dry rooms with a temperature 
range of +5 °C to +45 °C. 

Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard, e.g. paint shops.

Never expose the telephone to heat sources, direct sunlight or other electrical appliances.

Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.

If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the user guide.

Please remove faulty base stations from use or have them repaired by our service, as they could inter-
fere with other wireless services.

All electrical and electronic products should be disposed of separately from the municipal waste 
stream via designated collection facilities appointed by the government or the local authorities.

This crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on the product means the product is covered 
by the European Directive 2002/96/EC.
The correct disposal and separate collection of your old appliance will help prevent 
potential negative consequences for the environment and human health. It is a 
precondition for reuse and recycling of used electrical and electronic equipment.
