Safety precautions
Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.
Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the device to your children.
Use only the power adapter supplied, as indicated on the devices.
Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification (see "Technical Data"). Never use a conven-
tional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery types as this could result in significant health risks and per-
sonal injury. Rechargeable batteries, which are noticeably damaged, must be replaced.
Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. Be aware of the technical conditions in your partic-
ular environment, e.g., doctor's surgery.
If you use a medical device (e.g., a pacemaker), please contact the device manufacturer. They will be able to
advise you regarding the susceptibility of the device to external sources of high frequency energy (for the spec-
ifications of your Gigaset product see "Technical Data").
Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when speaker mode is activated. Otherwise
you risk serious and permanent damage to your hearing.
Your Gigaset is compatible with the majority of digital hearing aids on the market. However, perfect function with
all hearing aids cannot be guaranteed.
The phone may cause interference in analogue hearing aids (humming or whistling) or cause them to overload.
If you require assistance, please contact the hearing aid supplier.
The devices are not splashproof. For this reason do not install them in a damp environment such as bathrooms
or shower rooms.
Do not use the devices in environments with a potential explosion hazard (e.g., paint shops).
If you give your Gigaset to a third party, make sure you also give them the user guide.
Remove faulty devices from use or have them repaired by our Service team, as these could interfere with other
wireless services.
◆
The device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. It is also not possible to transmit emergency calls.
◆
Emergency numbers cannot be dialled if the keypad lock is activated!
First steps
Check the pack contents
One Gigaset A120/A220 base station, one mains adapter, one Gigaset handset, one phone cord, two batteries, one bat-
tery cover, one user guide.
If you have purchased a model with multiple handsets, the package should contain two batteries, a battery cover and
a charging cradle with mains adapter for each additional handset.
Setting up the base station and charging cradle (if included)
◆
Set up the base station at a central location on a flat, non-slip surface in your house or apartment. You can also
mount the base station and charging cradle on the wall.
◆
Pay attention to the range of the base station. This is up to 300 m in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 50 m
inside buildings.
◆
The base station and charging cradle are designed for use in enclosed dry rooms in a temperature range of +5 °C to
+45 °C.
◆
Care: Wipe down the base station and handset with a damp cloth (no solvents) or an antistatic cloth. Never use a
dry cloth. This can cause static.
◆
The phone's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to the multitude of different varnishes
and polishes used on today's furnishings, the risk of marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.
◆
Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or other electrical devices.
◆
Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.
