Safety precautions
Read this User Guide and the safety precautions
carefully before use. Explain their contents to your
W
children, and the potential hazards associated
with using the telephone.
Only use the mains unit supplied.
$
Fit only the approved rechargeable battery
pack! Never use a conventional (non-recharge-
able) battery pack as this could damage your
health and cause injury. Use the battery pack as
directed in this user guide (page 2).
The operation of medical appliances may be
affected. Be aware of the technical conditions
within the particular environment (e.g. doctor's
practice).
Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear
when it is ringing or when the handsfree function is activated. Otherwise you risk serious and
permanent damage to your hearing.
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.
Do not install the phone in a bathroom or
shower room. The handset is not splashproof.

Fitting the battery pack
◆ Place the battery leads in the cable guides so
that the battery cover cannot catch on the leads
and damage them when it is closed.
◆ Use only the rechargeable battery pack
recommended by Gigaset Communications
GmbH * (page 5), i.e. never use a conventional
(non-rechargeable) battery pack as this may
cause significant damage to health and property.
For example, the outer casing of the battery pack
could be destroyed or the battery pack could
explode. The phone could also malfunction or be
damaged as a result of using batteries that are not
of the recommended type.
◆ Only use the battery charger supplied.
◆ Only place the handset in the charging cradle
that is intended for it.
* Gigaset Communications GmbH is a licensee of the
Siemens trademark.
◆ Insert the plug into the socket as shown in the
enlarged view.
◆ Insert the battery pack.
◆ Place the cords in the cord routing.
Opening the battery cover
Place your fingernail between the cover and the
housing and pull the cover upwards.
Registering the handset
A Gigaset C36H handset can be registered on up to
four base stations.
You must initiate handset registration on the handset and on the base station.
After it has registered, the handset returns to idle
status. If several handsets are registered on the
base station, the internal number is shown in the
top left of the display after registration, e.g. 2.
If the internal numbers 1 to 4 have already been
assigned (four handsets have already been registered), handset number four is de-registered and
overwritten.
On the base station
To find out how to register the handset on the base
station, see the user guide for the base station.

¢ OK.
Closing the battery cover
Insert the cover into the top end of the battery
compartment and press down until it clicks into
place.
Charging the battery pack
Plug the mains unit for the charging cradle into the
socket and place the handset in the charging cradle
with the display facing forward.
To charge the battery pack, leave the handset in
the charging cradle for approx. 5 hours. The battery pack is now fully charged. The charge status of
the battery pack is only correctly displayed after
uninterrupted charging/discharging. Therefore you
should not interrupt the charging process.
Charging is electronically controlled to prevent
overcharging. The battery pack heats up during
charging. This is normal and not dangerous. After
a time its charge capacity will decrease for technical reasons.
You must set the date and time to ensure that the
times of calls are logged correctly (see Menu tree
page 6).
