Charging The Handset; Private Branch Exchanges; Disposing Of Old Equipment; Note On Medical Equipment - AUDIOLINE DECT 8048 -SOS Bedienungsanleitung

The maximum standby and talk times specified apply to the rechargeable batteries supplied when used under
optimum conditions. Ambient temperature, charging cycles and other external factors, such as radio loading in the
area of use, can affect operating times considerably. In addition, the charge capacity is reduced for technical reasons
during use or when stored at extremely high or low temperatures.
1.6

Charging the handset

If the handset warms up during the charging process, this is normal and does not represent a danger. Do not charge
the handset on an external charging unit as this could damage it.
1.7

Private branch exchanges

The telephone can also be connected to a private branch exchange. The dealer where you purchased the exchange
can provide information as to whether the telephone will work properly with the exchange. There is no guarantee that
the equipment will function perfectly on every private branch exchange.
1.8

Disposing of old equipment

When your AUDIOLINE equipment has come to the end of its operating life, dispose of it at the collecting point
provided by your local, public waste disposal service (e.g. recycling center).
The adjacent symbol on your telephone indicates that the old equipment must not be disposed of in normal
domestic waste.
According to the laws on electrical and electronic apparatus, old electrical and electronic equipment must be
sorted during disposal.
1.9

Note on medical equipment

The telephone operates with a very low transmitting power. The current level of knowledge from research and
technology indicates that such low transmitting power does not represent a risk to health. It has been shown,
however, that portable telephones, when switched on, can affect medical equipment. Therefore, never use the
telephone in the vicinity of medical equipment.
There is no evidence that DECT telephones affect heart pacemakers. However, it cannot be ruled out that certain
heart pacemakers will not be affected.
DECT telephones can cause an unpleasant humming sound in hearing aids.

The telephone is designed for use in indoor rooms with a temperature range from 10 ˚C to 30 ˚C. The base station
should not be used in rooms exposed to moisture, such as bathrooms or laundries. Do not locate the device in the
vicinity of sources of heat such as radiators, and never expose it to direct sunlight.
Do not use the handset in potentially explosive areas. Prevent excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibration,
chemicals, moisture, heat and direct sunlight.
