Safety precautions

Please read these instructions carefully. Failure to comply presents a risk of
injury and damage to a device, as well as breaches of applicable laws.
Please explain the contents of this document as well as the potential risks
associated with using this device to your children.

General information

•
For your own safety, only use original, approved accessories from Gigaset
for your mobile phone. Using incompatible accessories can damage the
mobile phone and entail hazardous situations. Original accessories can
¢
be purchased from Gigaset Customer Service (see Customer service
p. 20).
•
The mobile phone is not waterproof. The device or its accessories must
therefore not be kept or charged in damp environments (in bathrooms,
shower rooms or kitchens, for example). Rain, moisture or any liquid can
contain minerals which can cause the electrical circuitry to corrode.
There is a risk of electric shock, fire or damage when the device is being
charged.
•
Permitted temperature range for charging and operation: 5-40°C.
High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices and damage
the battery; plastic parts can deform or melt. Using or keeping the
mobile phone in refrigerated areas can result in condensation on the
inside of the telephone which will destroy the electronic circuitry.
•
The mobile phone must not be used or kept in dusty or dirty places. Dust
can be a reason for the mobile phone to malfunction.
•
Switch off your mobile phone when in potentially explosive areas and
observe all warning signs. Potentially explosive areas also include places
where switching off vehicle engines is normally recommended. It is at
these kinds of places that flying sparks can be the cause of explosions or
fires with resulting injuries, and there may be a risk to life.
These areas include petrol stations, chemical factories, transport and
storage systems for hazardous chemicals, spaces under ship decks, areas
in which the air contains chemical substances or fine particles (such as
dust or metal powder particles).
•
Short-circuiting, disassembling and modifying the mobile phone are not
permitted because they present a risk of injury, electric shock, fire or
damage to the charger.
•
The USB connection must be established with USB version 2.0 or higher.

Battery and charging

•
The battery is built-in. Do not disassemble, weld and/or modify the
battery. Do not keep the mobile telephone where it is exposed to strong
mechanical effects.
•
The battery electrolyte coming into contact with eyes can cause a loss of
eyesight. If electrolyte does enter an eye, please do not rub the eye with
a hand. Immediately wash the affected eye thoroughly with clear water
and consult a doctor. The electrolyte coming into contact with skin (or
clothing) presents a risk of skin burns. Immediately wash the skin or
clothing thoroughly with soap and clear water, and consult a doctor if
required.
•
The temperature of the mobile phone rises during the charging process.
Do not store the mobile telephone in the same place as flammable
products as this poses a risk of fire.
•
Do not charge the battery for longer than 12 hours.
