We reserve the right to make technical and optical modifications to the

1.1 Intended use
This telephone has been developed for use in an analogue telephone
network (PSTN) within Germany. However, due to the different services
offered by the various telecommunication network providers, there is no
guarantee that the equipment will function trouble−free on every
telecommunication terminal connection. The telephone can be
connected to a TAE line socket with F/N coding and can be used
together with other equipment such as facsimile unit, answering machine
or modem. Only connect the telephone line from the telephone to a
telephone line socket designed for it. Never change the plug on the
connection cable.
1.2 Power failure
The telephone cannot be used to make calls in the event of a power
failure. Always keep a cord connected telephone which operates without
an external power supply available in the case of emergency situations.
1.3 Installation location
The installation location is a decisive factor to ensure trouble−free
operation. The equipment must be set up in the vicinity of a 230 Volt
mains power outlet.
Do not place the base station in the direct vicinity of other electronic
equipment, such as microwave ovens or hi−fi systems, since they could
cause mutual disturbance. Therefore, maintain a distance of at least one
meter from other electronic equipment.
Place the base station on a level, non−slip surface. Normally, the
footpads on the base station do not leave any marks on the surface
where it is located. However, due the diverse types of paints and
surfaces which come into question, it cannot be fully ruled out that the
footpads will leave marks on the surface on which it is located.
