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 to your children the contents of this document as well as the potential risks associated with using this device.

Only use chargers approved and certified by Gigaset.

Using incompatible chargers can damage the mobile phone and entail hazardous situations.

This product is fitted with batteries and must not be disposed of in normal household waste at the end of its life.

The symbol with the crossed-out waste bin indicates that the product must be disposed of at a suitable collection point for recycled electric and electronic devices.

The function of medical equipment near your product can be impaired. Bear in mind the technical conditions of the environment in question (such as in doctors' surgery).

If you use a medical device such as a pacemaker, please consult the manufacturer of the product before using the product. You will be provided information on the sensitivity of the device to external, high-frequency energy sources.

This device is not waterproof. Do not keep the device or its accessories in moist environments (in bathrooms and shower rooms for example).

Rain, moisture, liquids and water potentially contain minerals which can cause the electrical circuitry to corrode.

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. This pertains to petrol stations and chemical factories for example.

These areas include spaces under ship decks, transportation and storage systems for hazardous chemicals, areas in which the air contains chemical substances or fine particles (such as dust or metal powder particles).

Dispose of faulty devices or have them repaired by our Customer service team. These devices could interfere with other wireless services.

Do not use the device if the display is cracked or shattered. Fragments of glass and plastic can injure hands and face.

Send the device in to Customer service for repair.

High volumes can impair hearing.

Listening to music or conversation with headphones set to a loud volume can be unpleasant and permanently impair hearing.

To prevent loss of hearing, do not have the volume turned up too high for long periods. If you wear headphones whilst out walking or jogging, please ensure that the cord does not wrap itself around your body or objects on your person.

Only wear headphones in dry environments. The static electricity which builds up on the headphones can discharge via your ears as an electric shock. The static electricity can discharge if you touch the headphones with your hand or touch bare metal before connecting with the mobile phone.

Emergency calls

Make sure the mobile phone is switched on and connected to the GSM network. Enter the emergency number as required and speak.

Tell the person at the emergency call centre your location.

Do not end the conversation until the person at the emergency call centre asks you to.

Children and pets

Keep the mobile phone, batteries, chargers and accessories out of the reach of children and pets. Children and/or pets can swallow the small parts, posing a risk of suffocation and other hazards. A child may only use the mobile phone under the supervision of an adult.

Hospitals and medical equipment

• Heart pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators:
When you switch on your mobile phone, ensure that the distance between the phone and an implant is at least 152 mm. To reduce potential interference, use the mobile phone on the opposite side to the implant. Please switch the mobile phone off immediately if interference occurs.
Do not keep the mobile phone in a shirt pocket.

• Hearing aids, cochlear implants:
Some digital wireless devices can interfere with hearing aids and cochlear implants. Please consult the manufacturers of these products if interference occurs.

• Other medical devices:

If you and the people around you use other medical devices, please contact the relevant manufacturer for information on whether such devices are protected from radio frequency signals in the environment. You can also consult your doctor about this.

Switch off your mobile phone in aeroplanes

Please observe applicable restrictions and regulations.

Wireless devices can interfere with the function of aeronautical equipment. Follow the instructions issued by flight personnel when using your mobile phone.

Vehicles and road safety

The absolute priority for every vehicle driver and everyone in a vehicle is safety on the roads and for road users. Using a mobile phone whilst driving can be distracting and therefore lead to dangerous situations. You can also be violating applicable laws.

Use a qualified maintenance service

The installation and repair of products are the sole preserves of qualified maintenance personnel.

Battery

Not replacing the battery properly can cause a risk of explosion.

Dispose of used batteries in line with the instructions.

• Never burn or heat batteries, and do not dispose of them in environments which are at risk of heat or fire to prevent battery fluid escaping, overheating, explosion and fire. Do not disassemble, weld and/or modify the battery. Do not keep the battery where it is exposed to strong mechanical effects.
• Do not pierce the battery with sharp objects – the battery fluid can escape and the battery can overheat, explode or catch fire. Crushing, heating and burning batteries are strictly prohibited.
• Do not use any sharp objects (such as screwdrivers) to touch and pierce the battery. All of the actions mentioned present a risk of the battery catching fire and burning.
• 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.
• Never use batteries for purposes other than those specified. Never use a damaged battery. If the battery becomes hot, discolours, deforms or becomes leaky whilst being used, charged or kept in a safe place, it must be replaced immediately by a new battery for safety reasons.
• The battery is not waterproof. Never use or charge the battery in a kitchen, bathroom or places with high temperatures or high humidity levels.
• The battery temperature rises during the charging process. Do not keep the battery together with ignitable products in the same drawer as this poses a risk of fire.
• The USB connection must be established with USB version 2.0 or higher.
• Caution: Dispose of used batteries in line with the instructions (Section Waste and environmental protection → p. 83).

Charger

- Only use the charger indoors.

- The socket must be easily accessible during the charging process.

- Whilst the phone is charging, do not use the phone for calls or dial any numbers.

• Electrical storms pose a risk of electric shocks.

- 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 charger is not waterproof. Never use the charger in a kitchen, bathroom or places with high temperatures or high humidity levels as this poses a risk of electric shock, fire and damage to the charger.

- Never charge a mobile phone without the battery inserted.

- Do not use the charger when the power cable is damaged or no battery is inserted in the mobile phone because this poses a risk of electric shock and fire.

- Only charge the device when the ambient temperature is between 0^ and 40^ .

SIM card, memory card and data connector cable

• Use the right slot/interface when inserting and removing the SIM card, memory card and data connector cable.
• Do not remove the card from the mobile phone whilst data is being sent or received as this presents a risk of data loss and damage to the mobile phone or memory card.
• Do not exert any force when inserting the SIM or memory card and when connecting the data cable - because doing so might damage the phone and other parts.
• Charges might apply when establishing Internet connections via the SIM card.

Playing games

Playing games on the mobile phone for long periods may mean assuming an unhealthy body posture. Take a 15 minute break every hour. Stop immediately if you feel unwell during game play.

Consult a doctor straight away if your condition persists.

More important information on safety

• For your own safety, only use original, approved accessories from Gigaset for your mobile phone. Original accessories can be purchased from Gigaset Customer service (see Customer service → p. 82).
• Do not charge the battery for longer than 12 hours.
• In the event of malfunction of your mobile phone, battery or accessories, please contact a Gigaset Service Centre for an inspection.
• Never point the flash light directly at the eyes of people or animals. Pointing a flash light too near to human eyes poses a risk of temporary loss of eyesight or impairment of vision.
• The device can heat up when running power-intensive apps or programs for longer periods. This is normal and has no bearing on the performance of the device.
• When the device warms up, please put it aside for a while and stop the program you were running. Coming into contact with a hot device can cause minor skin irritations such as redness.

Important information on using and safekeeping

• 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.
• The mobile phone must not be used or kept in excessively hot places. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices and damage the battery, and some plastic parts can deform or melt.
• The mobile phone must not be used or kept in refrigerated areas. Because the mobile phone stabilises to the ambient temperature, condensation can form inside the phone, damaging beyond repair the electronic circuitry. Mobile charging temperature: 0-40°C, mobile use (discharge) temperature: 0-40°C.
• Ensure your mobile phone is not dropped or shaken, or exposed to any impact. Treating the mobile phone without due care can shatter the display and damage the electronic circuitry and sensitive parts inside.
• Do not apply lacquer to the mobile phone. Lacquer and paint can damage the parts of the mobile phone and may cause malfunction.

Protection from harmful apps

Downloading apps from sources other than Google Play

If you want to download apps from sources other than Google Play, you must permit it explicitly.

Apps from unknown sources can represent a security risk for your smartphone. A download can corrupt your smartphone, and personal details can be misused or go missing.

▶ Settings ▶ Users – Security ▶ Enable the Unknown sources switch ... You can now install apps from other sources

Enabling Verify apps

When the function is enabled, your device verifies apps when being installed, and regularly searches the device for potentially harmful apps.

▶ Settings ▶ Users – Google ▶ Security ▶ Verify apps – Enable the Scan device for security threats switch

The following actions are possible when you install an app which is not from Google Play:

• Recommendation not to install the app.
  • Installation of the app is blocked when there is a threat to the security of the device.
• Information on the app's identification is sent to Google, such as protocol information, URLs connected to the app, the device ID, its operating system version and the IP address.

Apps installed on the device are checked regularly. If a potential harmful app is detected, the app check can take the following actions:

• Recommend that you uninstall the app immediately.
• Remove an app which is known to be insecure.

Improving the detection of harmful apps

The Scan device for security threats function is enabled.

If the function is enabled, Google also receives anonymous information on all apps installed which are not from the Google Play Store. This helps Google to provide better protection for users against harmful apps.

▶ Settings ▶ Users – Google ▶ Security ▶ Verify apps ▶ Enable the Improve harmful app detection switch

This option might not work for all apps because developers are able to disable this function to prevent their apps being subjected to verification.

Downloads
