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 Section Customer service).

• Only use the enclosed accessories together with this appliance.

• Your mobile phone offers protection class IP68 (dust- and water- resistant). In the event of contact with water, please comply with the following instructions: Never submerge your mobile phone in deep water. Do not use your mobile phone underwater for more than 30 minutes at a maximum water depth of 1,2 m. If the device has been immersed in water, please dry it with a cloth to remove any water drops from the openings (receiver/ speaker / microphone). To avoid dust and moisture entering the USB and headphone jacks, make sure that they are always properly closed with the appropriate covers or sealing plugs when not in use. This helps to ensure the longevity of the device and to prevent possible malfunctions due to external influences.Gi gaset GLX

• Permitted temperature range for charging: 0-45°C. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices and damage the battery; plastic parts can deform or melt. Using or keeping your mobile phone in refrigerated areas can result in con- densation on the inside, which will destroy the electronic circuitry.

• 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 your mobile phone are not permitted because they present a risk of injury, electric shock, fire or damage to the charger. Battery and charging

• 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 use any sharp objects (such as screwdrivers) to touch or pierce the battery. There is a risk that battery fluid will escape or the battery will overheat, explode or catch fire and burn. Crushing, heating and burning batteries are strictly prohibited.

• The battery electrolyte coming into contact with eyes can cause a loss of eyesight. If electrolyte does enter an eye, please do not rub Not replacing the battery properly can pose a risk of explo- sion. Dispose of used batteries in line with the instructions (Chapter Waste and environmental protection).Gi gaset GLX

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 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.

• Do not charge the battery for longer than 12 hours.

• Only charge the mobile phone indoors. Whilst the phone is charging, do not use the phone for calls or dial any numbers.

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

• Electrical storms pose a risk of electric shocks.

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

• Only use authorised plug-in power supplies.

• To extend the service life of your battery, avoid very high and very low temperatures; the optimum range is between 15 and 35°C.

• It is harmful if the battery is kept at 100% charge level for long periods of time.

• Switched-on wireless connections, such as Bluetooth, increase the power consumption of the device. You can switch these off if they are not required. The brightness of the display also has a major influence on power consumption. If you set your display to a low brightness level and switch off wireless connections that are not required, the operating time of the device will be longer.Gi gaset GLX

• The function of medical equipment near your mobile phone can be impaired. Bear in mind the technical conditions of the environment in question (such as in a 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 your mobile phone to external, high-frequency energy sources.

• Heart pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators: When you switch on your mobile phone, ensure that the distance between your mobile phone and an implant is at least 20 cm. To reduce potential interference, use your mobile phone on the opposite side to the implant. Please switch your mobile phone off immediately if interference occurs. Do not keep your 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. High volumes can impair hearing. Listening to music or conversation with headphones set to a loud vol- ume can be unpleasant and permanently impair hear- ing. To prevent loss of hearing, do not have the volume turned up too high for long periods.Gi gaset GLX

• Ensure your mobile phone is switched on and connected to the mobile 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 your mobile phone, 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 your mobile phone under the supervision of an adult. Aeroplanes, vehicles and road safety

• 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.

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

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

• Careless handling of your mobile phone, such as dropping it, can shatter the display and damage the electronic circuitry and sensitive parts inside.

• Do not use your mobile phone if the device is cracked or shattered. Fragments of glass or plastic can injure hands and face. Other important information

• 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.Gi gaset GLX

• Do not paint or lacquer your mobile phone. Lacquer and paint can damage the parts of your mobile phone and may cause malfunction.
