Flashes if there are new messages on the answering machine. Range / Location To obtain the best possible range, we recommend positioning the telephone in a location central to your sphere of activity. Avoid positioning the telephone in niches, recesses and behind steel doors. The maximum range between base station and handset is approximately 300 meters outdoors. Depending on the surrounding conditions as well as spatial and structural

factors, the range may be smaller. Silent zones can occur due to the digital transmis- sion in the frequency range used – even within the range, depending on the struc- tural environment. In this case the transmission quality may be reduced through the increased incidence of short breaks in transmission. Normal call quality can be restored if you move slightly out of the silent zone. If the range is exceeded, the call will be disconnected unless you move back into range within ten seconds. Battery advice Use only the original batteries (2 x NiMH, AAA, 1,2 V 500 mAh) as well as the origi- nal power supply (6 V DC). The handset operating times (standby 100 hours/active 10 hours) and charging times apply only if the battery is charged to the defined minimum capacity. Charging is electronically controlled to ensure optimal charging and care of batteries in different charge states. Full capacity is achieved only after several charging cycles. Note: Using other rechargeable batteries or non-rechargeable batteries/primary cells can be dangerous and cause malfunctions or damage to the tele- phone. Do not short-circuit the batteries (danger). In particular, avoid inad- vertent short-circuits during storage and transport e.g. bunch of keys, metal panels or similar objects, and make sure the batteries do not come into contact with greasy materials. When not in the handset, therefore, bat- teries should be stored only in insulating packaging. Ensure also that the contacts do not touch greasy parts. Rechargeable batteries can become warm while recharging. This is a nor- mal occurrence and is not dangerous.93 Aeris 126/126T Connecting the phone

This does not cause the Aeris 126/126T to malfunction. Several factors can cause a failure of specific features to function:

• The Internet/cable telephony provider may not provide the function on its Inter- net/cable telephony connection.

• The adapter used to convert Internet/cable telephony to analog telephony (usu- ally supplied by the provider) may not forward the functions to connected tele- phones or may forward them in a non-analog format. If this happens, please check the Aeris 126/126T on an analog fixed line and/or con- tact your Internet/cable telephony provider. Care Your telephone is a sophisticated product in terms of design and construction, and should therefore be handled with care. To clean the telephone, wipe first with an antistatic cloth or a damp, soft leather cloth and then dry using a dry cloth.Aeris 126/126T
