Gigaset C300H – your high-quality accessory

Congratulations on your purchase of this latest generation Gigaset. Your Gigaset can do a lot more than just make calls:

Directory for up to 250 entries

Save phone numbers and names to the directory (¢ page 26). You can designate important entries as VIPs (Very Important Persons). VIP calls are then recognized by their ringer and their color in the directory (¢ page 27).

If you don't (always) want it to ring

Use time control for calls (¢ page 33) or ensure that all calls from a withheld number are not signalled (¢ page 34).

Other practical information

Transfer the directory from an existing Gigaset handset (¢ page 27), use the shortcut function (¢ page 27) and adjust the color and contrast of the display to your requirements (¢ page 32).

Following safety precautions

Warning

Be sure to read this user guide and the safety precautions before using your telephone. Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to your

children.

Use only the power adapter supplied.

Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification provided on page 36, as this could otherwise result in significant health risks and personal injury.

Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. Be aware of the technical conditions in your particular environment, e.g., doctor's surgery. If you use a medical device (e.g., a pacemaker), please contact the device manufacturer. They will be able to advise you regarding the susceptibility of the device to external sources of high frequency energy. Please refer to the "Ap pendix" chapter for the specifications of this Gigaset product.

Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when speaker mode is activated; otherwise you risk serious and permanent damage to your hearing.

Your Gigaset is compatible with the majority of digital hearing aids on the market. However, perfect function with all hearing aids cannot be guaranteed.

The handset may cause interference with analog hearing aids. If you require assistance, please contact the hearing aid supplier.

Do not install the charger in bathrooms or shower rooms. The charger is not splashproof (¢ page 36).

Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard (e.g., paint shops).

If you give your Gigaset to a third party, make sure you also give them the user guide.

Remove faulty bases from use or have them repaired by our Service, as these could interfere with other wireless services.

Please note

u Not all of the functions described in this user guide are available in all countries. u The device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. In case of a power failure, it is

not possible to make any calls including emergency calls.

Please note

Pay attention to the range of the base. This is up to 328 yards in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 55 yards inside buildings. The range is reduced when Eco Mode is activated (¢ page 31).

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.

Please remove the protective film!

Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover

Use only rechargeable batteries (¢ page 36) recommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH, 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 the recommended type.

The display is blank.

1. The handset is not switched on.

¥ Press and hold the end call key a.

2. The battery is empty. ¥ Charge the battery or replace it

(¢ page 10).

"Base" flashes on the display.

1. The handset is outside the range of the base. ¥ Move the handset closer to the base.

2. The base's range is reduced because Eco Mode is activated.

¥ Deactivate Eco Mode (¢ page 31) or

reduce the distance between the handset and the base.

3. The base is not switched on. ¥ Check the base power adapter.

4. Handset has no t been registered with the base or has been deregistered. ¥ Register the handset (¢ page 12).

Handset does not ring.

1. The ringer is deactivated. ¥ Activate the ringer (¢ page 34).

3. The phone only rings if the phone number has been transferred.

¥ Activate the ringer for unknown calls

(¢ page 34).

Each incoming call resets the date/time incorrectly.

The date and time are sent through e.g., your network provider or PBX during calling line display. This data may be incorrect.

¥ Set the date/time correctly e.g., on the router

or PBX.

¥ Do not automatically copy the date/time

(dependent on base, refer to base user guide).

The other party cannot hear you. You pressed the mute key v during a call. The

handset is "muted." ¥ Unmute the microphone (¢ page 25).

The number of the caller is not displayed despite Caller ID.

Caller ID is not enabled. ¥ The caller should ask the network provider to

¥ Repeat the process.

Watch the display and refer to the user guide if

necessary.

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of the base station is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX.

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label. A copy of the supplier's Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) is available at this Internet address: www.gigaset.com/docs.

If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you advance, that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn’t practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

This telephone system may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service commission or corporation commission for information. Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this phone.

This telephone system equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby T V’s and VCR’s; to minimize or prevent such interference, the system base should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the base farther away from theTV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this telephone system does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the system off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

2. Increase the separation between the base station and receiver.

3. Connect the base station into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for help.
