General
Safety notes
Notes on handset use
● Do not use the handset in environments where
there is danger of explosion (for example, a paint
shop).
● Research has shown that electronic devices such as
medical equipment can be affected by the handset.
Local safety regulations must therefore be
observed.
● The handset is not suitable for people with hearing aids
since radio signal interference produces a very
unpleasant humming sound if the volume is turned up
too high.
● Do not use handsets in damp environments (bath-
room). The units are not splashproof.
● If you lend your handset to someone else, please make
sure that you include the operating instructions with it.
Notes on battery use
● Only use approved nickel cadmium (NiCd) or nickel
metal hydrid batteries (NiMH), see page 12.
● Never use other batteries or normal (non-recharge-
able) batteries. These batteries can cause short-cir-
cuits and may be subject to damage (dangerous). Note
the symbols in the battery compartment:
Use rechargeable batteries only and
observe polarity.
● Avoid contact with water and fire.
● Do not use non-Siemens charging devices. These
could damage the batteries.
● Only use the supplied plug-in power supply unit as des-
ignated on the underside of the charging shell.
● Please dispose of defective batter-
ies, the mobile handset and the
charging shell in accordance with the
environmental specifications.
