Safety precautions

Caution:

Explain their contents to your children, and the potential hazards associated with using the tele-
phone.
$ Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base
station.
Fit only the approved, rechargeable batteries! Never use conventional (non-

the batteries as directed in this user guide (page 51).
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 base station in bathrooms or shower rooms. The handset and
base station are not splash proof (page 49).
Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard,
e.g. auto paint shops.
If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the user
ƒ
guide.
