Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover
 
Use only rechargeable batteries recommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH ( Technical data) , as this could otherwise result in significant health risks and personal injury. For example, the outer casing of the batteries could be destroyed or the batteries could explode. The phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the recommended type.
*Insert the batteries with the polarity in the right direction (for correct +/- direction, see diagram).
*Hold the battery cover at a slight angle and insert the bottom into the casing first .
*Then press the cover until it clicks into place.
*Insert the locking disc as shown (at an angle of approx. 20°) . Pay attention to the arrow ­markings.
*Turn locking disc clockwise to the end stop . The locking disc is closed once the markings on the disc are aligned with those on the cover .
To open the battery cover, for example to change the batteries:
*Turn the locking disc anti-clockwise to the end stop (approx. 20°) and remove .
*Place your fingernail in the notch on the side between the cover and the casing and remove the cover .
