Setting up the base station and

charging cradle

The base station and charging cradle are designed for

use in enclosed dry rooms with a temperature 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.

Please note:

◆ Never expose the telephone to heat sources,

direct sunlight or other electrical appliances.

◆ Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corro-

sive liquids and vapours.

Connecting the base station

¤ Connect the plug from the power supply 1.

¤ Plug the power adapter into the plug socket 2.

¤ Then connect the telephone jack 3 and insert the

cables into the cable ducts.

¤ To mount the base to a wall, fix two screws on the

wall and insert the screws into the slots 4.

Please note:

◆ The mains adapter should always be connected,

as the phone will not operate without mains con

nection.

◆ Only use the mains adapter and phone cord sup-

plied.

◆ Pin connections on telephone cables can vary. If

you buy a replacement phone cord, make sure

that the phone jack has the correct type of wiring.
