on. If a PIN was set, it must be entered before the hand-
set can be operated.

Ñ

in the event of range problems.
Charging batteries
The handset charges when sitting in the charging shell,
even when deactivated. The charging status is shown
on the display.
If the handset deactivates because the batteries are
flat, it automatically reactivates and is ready for opera-
tion as soon as you place it in the charging shell. The
charging operation starts. If a PIN was set, it must be
entered first to allow charging to start.
Language
If your preferred language for the display texts is not
set, you can set this yourself ( page 18).
