Gigaset S910/S910A – more than just a telephone
Gigaset S910/S910A – more than just a telephone
Your telephone sets new standards for the way you communicate at home.
The configuration and user interface of the cordless phone are excellent, providing
you with first-class voice quality in handsfree mode, while Bluetooth™ offers you
enormous flexibility.
The large TFT display, user-friendly keypad and clearly laid out menu are very simple to use.
Your phone can do a whole lot more:
u You can use Bluetooth™ for wireless communication with other devices
(e.g. headsets) that also use this technology.
u You can synchronise your directories on your telephone, mobile phone and PC
via Bluetooth™ using the Gigaset QuickSync software (¢ page 69).
u You can save appointments (¢ page 46) and anniversaries, e.g., birthdays
(¢ page 35), in your phone and it will remind you of them in advance.
u You can designate important people as VIPs to identify important calls from the
ringtone (¢ page 32).
u You can assign a picture to entries in the directory – in future the picture will
appear every time you receive a call from this number (¢ page 32).
u If you do not want to take calls where the caller has withheld their number, just
set your handset to only ring if Calling Line Identification has not been withheld
(¢ page 60).
u If you do not wish to be disturbed, you can simply set up a time control so that
your phone will only ring when it is convenient (¢ page 60). VIP calls are still
connected.
u You can assign important numbers to the number keys on your phone. The
number is then dialled by simply pressing a key (¢ page 56).
u Adapt your Gigaset to suit your handsfree requirements (¢ page 59) and adjust
the brightness of your keypad to suit you (¢ page 58).
u View your personal pictures as a screensaver slide show (¢ page 57).
u You can set the display to large font to increase readability in the directory
(¢ page 57).
u You can adapt the menu display to suit your individual requirements so that only
the most important functions Simplified (simplified mode) or all functions
Complete (expert mode
only available in Complete (expert mode are marked with the
u Gigaset Green Home — Be environmentally aware when using your phone.

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, as indicated on the underside of the base.
Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification provided on
page 67, 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 “Appendix” 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 handsfree
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 an unpleasant humming or whistling noise in hearing aids
or cause them to overload. If you require assistance, please contact the hearing aid
supplier.
Do not install the base or charger in bathrooms or shower rooms. The base and
charger are not splashproof (¢ page 67).
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 department, as
they 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. It is also not possible to trans-
mit emergency calls.

Setting up the base and charger (if included)
The base and charger are designed for use in dry rooms in a temperature range of
+5°C to +45°C.
¤ Set up the base at a central point in the building on a level, non-slip surface or
mount the base (Gigaset S910 only) or charger on the wall (¢ page 72).
Please note
Pay attention to the range of the base.
This is up to 300 m in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 50 m inside buildings. The range is reduced when Eco Mode (¢ page 46) is activated.
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.
Connecting the base
¤ First connect the tel-
ephone jack 2 and
insert the cables into
the cable ducts.
¤ Then connect the
power adapter 1.
Please note:
u The power adapter must always be connected, as the phone will not operate
without a mains connection.
u Use only the power adapter and phone cord supplied. Pin connections on tele-
phone cables can vary (pin connections ¢ page 68).
10
Connecting the charger (if included)
¤ Plug the power adapter into the plug
socket 2.
¤ Connect the flat plug from the power
adapter 1.
To disconnect the plug from the charger, press the
release button 3 and disconnect the plug 4.

in an upward direction.
Setting up the handset for use
The display and keypad are protected by plastic films.
Remove the protective films!
Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover
Use only rechargeable batteries recommended by Gigaset Communications
GmbH (¢ page 67), i.e., Never use conventional (non-rechargeable) batteries,
as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury. For example,
the outer casing of the batteries could be damaged 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.
Warning

¤ To attach — press the belt clip
onto the back of the handset so
that the protrusions on the belt
clip engage with the notches.
¤ To remove — press the centre of
the belt clip firmly with your right
thumb, push the fingernail of
your left index finger up between

Initial charging and discharging of the batteries
The correct charge status can only be displayed if the batteries are first fully
charged and discharged.
¤ Charge the handset in the base for 8.5 hours.
Please note
The handset must only be placed in the designated Gigaset S910/S910A base or
charging cradle.
¤ After charging, remove the handset from the base and only replace it when the
batteries are fully discharged.
14
Please note
u Each handset is registered with the base at the factory. You do not need to
register the handset again. If you wish to use your handset with a different
base or use further handsets with your base, you will need to register the
handset manually (¢ page 49).
u After the initial battery charge and discharge, you may place your handset in
the base after every call.
u Always repeat the charging and discharging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and reinsert them.
