Taking the first steps
Gigaset C300-C300A / Master EN / A31008-xxxx-xxxx-x-xxxx / starting.fm / 16.04.2010
Version 4, 16.09.2005
Setting up the base and charging cradle (if included)
The base and charging cradle are designed for use in dry rooms in a temperature
range of +5°C to +45°C.
¤ Set up the base at a central point in the building on a level, non-slip surface or
mount the base or charger on the wall (¢ page 72).
The phone's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to the
multitude of different varnishes and polishes used on today's furnishings, the
occurrence of marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.
Please note:
u Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or
other electrical devices.
u Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.
Connecting the base
¤ First, connect the power adapter
1.
¤ Then connect the telephone jack
2
and insert the cables into the cable
ducts.
Please note:
u The power adapter must always be
connected, as the phone will not
operate without a mains connection.
u Use only the power adapter and
phone cord supplied. Pin connec-
tions on telephone cables can vary
(pin connections, ¢ page 67).
u The answering machine is ready for
use approx. 15 seconds after the
base has been connected or reset.
Please note
Pay attention to the range of the base.
This is up to 300 m in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 50 m inside build-
ings. The range is reduced when Eco Mode is activated (¢ page 47).
