Additional functions
Deactivating alarm/snooze mode
ECO DECT
The device range is set to maximum as default. This guarantees optimum wireless management. The handset
will not function in idle status, as it is not transmitting (No Radiation). Only the base will maintain contact with
the handset via a low wireless signal. During a call, the transmission power automatically adapts to the
distance between the base and handset. The smaller the distance to the base, the lower the radiation.
To reduce the radiation further:

If no key is pressed, the alarm call deactivates itself after 60 seconds and is repeated 5 minutes later.
After the second repetition, the alarm call is deactivated for 24 hours.

The range is also reduced with this setting.
A repeater to increase the range cannot be used.

To benefit from the advantages of the setting No Radiation, all registered handsets must support
this feature.
•If the setting No Radiation is activated and a handset is registered to the base that does not
support this feature, No Radiation is automatically deactivated. As soon as this handset is de-
registered, No Radiation will automatically be re-activated.
The wireless connection will only be established for an incoming or outgoing call and the
connection will be delayed by about 2 seconds.
So that a handset can establish a wireless connection with the base more quickly for an incoming
call, it must "listen" to the base more often, i.e. scan the environment. This increases power usage
and reduces the standby and talktime of the handset.
When No Radiation is activated, there will be no range display/range alarm on the handset.
Contactability can be tested by attempting to establish a connection.
¤ Hold down the Talk key c . . . the ringing tone sounds.
