1 General Information
Rechargeable Batteries - Do not use any other rechargeable batteries or power packs. These could
possibly cause a short circuit. When changing batteries, always use standard rechargeable batteries, type
AAA 1.2V 750 mAh. Do not throw standard batteries into open fire or immerse in water. Do not dispose of
old or defective standard batteries together with normal domestic waste. Warming up of the handset during
recharging is normal and does not impose any danger. Do not use battery chargers from other
manufacturers to charge the handset, as this could lead to damage.
Position - There should be a 230 Volt mains socket near the position of the telephone. Do not place the
base station in the immediate vicinity of other electrical equipment, such as microwaves or hi-fi systems, as
this may result in mutual interference. The position has a decisive effect on problem free operation of the
telephone.
Place the base station on a flat and skidproof surface. The feet of the base station normally do not leave
any marks on the surface. However, due to the large number of varnishes and surfaces in use, it is not
always possible to avoid such foot prints on the telephone resting surface. Do not use the handset in
explosion endangered environments. Excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibrations, chemicals, moisture,
heat or direct sun radiation must be avoided.
Information on Medical Equipment - The telephone works with a very low transmission power. According
to the current state of research and technology this low transmission power rules out any health risk.
However, it has become apparent that switched on portable telephones can interfere with medical
equipment. Therefore, please keep a safe distance of at least one metre from medical equipment.
Waste Disposal - If the working life of the rechargeable batteries or the complete equipment has expired,
please dispose of these items in an environmentally friendly manner and in accordance with the statutory
provisions.
Temperature and Ambient Conditions - The telephone has been designed for use in protected rooms
with a temperature range of 10 °C to 30 °C. The base station must not be installed in damp rooms, such as
a bathroom or laundry room. Avoid the proximity to heat sources like radiators and do not expose the unit
to direct sunlight.
Cleaning and Care
The surface of the case can be cleaned with a soft, dry and lint-free cloth. Do not use cleansing agents,
particularly aggressive solvents. Apart from occasional cleaning of the case no other care is required. The
rubber feet of the base station are not resistant to all types of cleansers. The manufacturer will therefore not
assume liability for possible damage to furniture or the like.
