ECO DECT

ECO DECT reduces power consumption by
using a power supply with low power con-
sumption and also reduces the transmis-
sion power of the base station.
If only one handset is registered and it is in
the base station, eco mode is always acti-
vated automatically. In this case, the
transmission power of the base station is
reduced to the minimum.
You can use your handset to reduce the
transmission power on the base station
manually even when the handset is not in
the base station.
.
By doing so, you will reduce the transmis-
sion power even if you have several hand-
sets registered.
Your handset also reduces the transmis-
sion power depending on the distance to
the base station.

(
If eco mode is activated manually, the
icon is displayed at the top of the screen.
If eco mode is activated automatically
(only one handset is registered and it is on
the base station) and eco mode has not
been activated via the menu, then the
icon is not displayed.
Please note:
– Activating eco mode reduces the range of
the base station.
– Eco mode and any repeater support (see
page 58) cancel each other out, i.e. both
functions cannot be used at the same time.
– If external handsets (GAP) and handsets
from earlier Gigasets versions are used,
your handset will not automatically reduce
the transmission power to the base station.
