Important Information about the Batteries
Never use the batteries for any purpose other than that for which they were intended. Never use a
battery which is damaged or worn out.
Heat or cold reduces the performance and service life of the batteries. A handset with hot or cold
batteries may be temporarily out of order even if the batteries are fully charged.
Used batteries should be disposed of in accordance with local authority regulations. Please hand
them in for recycling if possible.
Do not throw batteries in a fire.
Charging and Discharging
The batteries can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but sooner or later they will be
worn out. If the operating time (i.e., talk and standby time) is significantly shorter than usual, then
it is time to replace the batteries.
To maintain the highest operating time possible, the batteries should be discharged now and again
by not placing the handset in the charger cradle but leaving it switched on until it discharges itself.
Only use this method to discharge the batteries.
Extreme temperatures influence the charging capability of the batteries.
Initial Setup and Operation
Charge the batteries approximately six to seven hours before using the handset for the first time.
This protective measure will extend the service life of the batteries.
The maximum capacity is only attained after three to five charging and discharging cycles.
Place the handset regularly in the charger cradle, thus ensuring optimum charging of the batteries.
When replacing the batteries, please pay attention to the correct polarity. It is essential to make sure
that only battery types approved by the manufacturer are used.
The manufacturer does not accept any liability for malfunctions or damage caused by using normal
batteries or other types of rechargeable batteries.
Your handset is only operational after the batteries have been charged. You can then use the hand-
set to make and receive calls.
Installation
Commissioning the Charger Cradle
In order to start operating your telephone, you must first plug in the charger cradle's power cable.
Safety Precautions
Use only the plug-in adapter supplied for use with the charger cradle.
Its ID no. is 4512132 Continental Europe / 4513788 for UK.
Connect the cable on the plug-in adapter to the terminal on
the bottom of the charger cradle, and then plug the adapter
into the mains socket.
Note
Your charger cradle will not work if the adapter is not plugged in or the power fails.
If there is no power to the charger cradle and the handset is placed in the cradle, the handset will
remain switched on and will gradually discharge itself while on standby.
