ECO DECT
You are helping to protect the environment
with your Gigaset SL400/SL400A.
Reducing energy consumption
Your telephone has a power-saving adapter
plug and uses less power.
Reducing radiation
The radiation from your telephone is
reduced automatically:
u
The closer the handset is to the base, the
lower the radiation.
You can further reduce the radiation from
the handset and base by using Eco Mode:
Eco Mode
Reduces radiation from the base and hand-
set by 80% – whether you are making a call
or not. Eco Mode reduces the range of the
base by approx. 50%. Using Eco Mode
always makes sense when a reduced range is
sufficient.
Switching off radiation
Eco Mode+
If you activate Eco Mode+, radiation (DECT
transmission power) from the base and
handset is deactivated in idle status. This is
also true when multiple handsets are used,
provided the handsets support Eco Mode+.
Eco Mode / Eco Mode+ can be activated/
deactivated independently of one another
and can also be used with multiple handsets.

u
When using Eco Mode+, you can
ensure that the range of the base is
sufficient by pressing and holding
the talk key c. You hear the ring-
tone if the base can be reached.
u
When Eco Mode+ is activated:
– Call setup is delayed by approx.
2 seconds.
– Handset standby time is reduced
by approx. 50%.
u
Registering handsets that do not sup-
port Eco Mode+ causes the mode to
be deactivated on the base and all
other handsets.

Activating Eco Mode reduces the
range of the base.
