Preparing to use your phone

Placing the handset into the base and charging the batteries

When you place the handset into the base, the handset will register automatically to the base. Proceed step by step as follows:
1. Place the handset in the base with the display up.
2. Wait till the handset has registered automatically to the base (page 52): This opera­tion takes around one minute. While registration is in progress the screen displays Anmeldevorgang: and Basis 1 flashes. After registration, you will see a '1' in the top left of the display – this means that the handset has been assigned the first in­ternal number.
3. Now leave the handset in the base for the batteries to charge – the batteries are sup­plied uncharged. Battery charging is indicated in the top right of the display by the battery icon
= Batteries flat V Batteries e Batteries
Should automatic registration be interrupted, register the handset manually as described starting on page 53. You can get help from a table containing basic questions and answers (page 69).

The battery charging status is correctly displayed only after uninterrupted charging/ discharging . You should therefore avoid removing the batteries unnecessarily and end-
ing the charging process prematurely.
i
To register additional handsets , refer to page 53.
For the initial charge we recommend a continuous, uninterrupted charg­in g pe rio d of fiv e ho urs , wh atever cha rge stat us is ind ica ted. Afte r a w hil e the charge capacity of the batteries will decrease for technical reasons.
Once initial charging is complete, you can replace your handset in the
base after each call. Charging is controlled electronically. This ensures that the batteries are charged in a way that optimizes their life.
The batteries heat up during charging. This is normal and not danger-
ous.

Note

Your telephone is now ready for operation. With the Gigaset C 150, the answering machine with pre-recorded announcement is also activated. To correctly record the time of calls and messages (C 150) you should now set the date and time (page 14).
