2Safety precautions

> 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 batteries could be damaged or the batteries could explode.

The phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the rec-

ommended type.

> Insert rechargeable batteries with the correct polarity, and use them in accordance with the user guide

(polarity symbols are displayed in or on the handset's battery compartment).

> Batteries should not be disposed of in general household waste. Observe the local waste disposal reg-

ulations, 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 par-

ticular 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 any of the following: 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 Centre, as they could

interfere with other wireless services.

> All electrical and electronic equipment must be disposed of separately from general household waste

using the sites designated by local authorities.

If a product displays this symbol of a crossed-out rubbish bin, the product is subject

to European Directive 2002/96/EC.

The appropriate disposal and separate collection of used equipment serve to prevent

potential harm to the environment and to health. They are a precondition for the re-

use and recycling of used electrical and electronic equipment.

For further information on disposing of your used equipment, please contact your

local authority, your refuse collection service or the dealer you purchased the prod-

uct from.

> The procedure below requires that your phone is automatically assigned an IP address

by the router (i.e. DHCP is enabled on router and phone).

In exceptional cases (e.g. if DHCP is not enabled on the router) you will have to assign

a static IP address to the base station for LAN access. You must enter this IP address on

the handset before carrying out the following steps. Further information can be found

in the user guide on the enclosed CD.

The following handset menu can be used to make the entry:

§Menu§ ¢ m Settings ¢ Base ¢ Local Network ¢ (enter system PIN)

> IP should be set as the default line for your phone (default setting). You will then imme-

diately receive corresponding messages if a connection to the provider's VoIP server can-

not be established due to incorrect/incomplete data.
