Caution:
Use only the rechargeable batteries recom-
mended by Siemens on page 44! Never use
conventional batteries (non-rechargeable) or
other battery types as this may cause signifi-
cant damage to health and property. For
example, the outer casing of the batteries
could be destroyed or the batteries could
explode. The phone could also malfunction or
be damaged as a result of using batteries that
are not of the recommended type.
