Rechargeable batteries for 'phone handsets

We've got a Gigaset A510 for our landline. The rechargeable batteries in the two handsets obviously need replacing - they no longer hold a charge for any reasonable length of time - and I'm wondering if I can replace them with any rechargeable battery that meets the spec?
The spec is NiMH AAA capacity 550 - 1000 mAh.
Can I safely use anything that meets those requirements? (I don't want any overheating/fire risks as the recharging base is on our main excape route!)

Yes, any NIMH AAA meeting that power would suffice.

And the 1000mAh will last longer in use and standby (nearly twice as long as a 550).Or a compromise: https://www.amazon.co.uk/BuyaBattery-Branded-Rechargeable-Cordless-Batteries/dp/B00WGJKDSM/ref=psdc_10395461_t4_B00WERBIM6
