u

One Gigaset AL180/AL280 base station,

u

one mains adapter,

u

one Gigaset AL18H/AL28H handset,

u

one phone cord,

u

two batteries,

u

one battery cover,

u

one user guide.

If you have purchased a 

model with multiple handsets

, the package should contain two bat-

teries, a battery cover and a charging cradle with mains adapter for each additional handset. 

Setting up the base station and charging cradle (if included)

The base station and charging cradle are designed for use in enclosed dry rooms with a tem-
perature range of +5 °C to +45 °C. 

¤

Set up the base station at a central location on a flat, non-slip surface in your house or 
apartment.

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 occurrence of marks on the 
surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.
You can also mount the base station and charging cradle on the wall.

Please note: 

u

Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or other elec-
trical devices.

u

Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.

Connecting the base station

¤

First

 connect the telephone jack 

2

 and 

insert the cables into the cable ducts. 

¤

Then

 connect the mains adapter 

1

.

Please note: 

u

The mains adapter must 

always be con-

nected

, as the phone will not operate 

without mains connection.

u

Only use the mains adapter and phone 
cord 

supplied

. Pin connections on tele-

phone cables can vary.

Please note

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 
range is reduced when Eco Mode is activated (

 page 16).
