Safety precautions
Safety precautions
Caution:
Read the safety precautions and the operating instructions before use.
Explain their contents to your children, and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone.
Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the
$
‹
Œ
charger.
Fit only the recommended rechargeable batteries (page 17) of the same
type! Do not use any other battery type or non-rechargeable batteries as this
could result in significant health risks and personal injury.
Insert rechargeable batteries as indicated by their polarity symbols, and use
them according to these instructions (polarity symbols can be seen in the handset's battery compartments).
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical
conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.
Do not install the charging cradle in bathrooms or showers. The handset and
base are not waterproof (page 15).
Switch off your phone when onboard an aircraft. Ensure that it cannot be
switched on again accidentally.
Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard,
e.g. auto paint shops.
ƒ
If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the
operating manual.
Dispose of the batteries and phone in accordance with environmental regulations.
Note:
Not all of the functions described in this manual are available in all countries.

Gigaset C34 – More than just a telephone
Gigaset C34 – More than
just a telephone
Your phone not only lets you store up to
100 telephone numbers (page 9) – your
Gigaset C34 can do much, much more:
u You can programme the keys of your
phone with important numbers so you
can dial at the touch of a button
(page 10).
u You can designate important people as
VIPs so you can tell important calls from
the ring tone (page 10).
u You can store birthdays (page 11) in
your phone and it will remind you of
them in advance.
Have fun using your new Gigaset C34!
Setting up the telephone for use
The pack contains:
u one Gigaset C34 handset,
u one charging cradle (incl. mains unit),
u two batteries
u one battery cover
u one set of operating instructions.
Inserting the batteries
Caution:
Use only the rechargeable batteries recommended by Siemens on page 17! Under no circumstances should you use a conventional
(non rechargeable) battery or other battery
types as this could cause significant damage to
health and property, e.g. 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 of the recommended
type.
¤ Fit the batteries with the correct polar-
ity.

¤ Position the battery cover against the
edge 1 and push down until it snaps in.
Opening the battery cover
¤ Push the catch 2 towards the loud-
speaker 1 and lift the cover up.

Connecting the charging cradle and
mounting it on the wall (if required) is
described at the end of these instructions.
Registering your phone
Before you can use your Gigaset C34 you
must register it to a base unit. The actual
registration procedure will depend on the
type of base unit.
Automatic registration Gigaset C34 to Gigaset C340/C345
Important: The handset must not already
be registered to any base unit.
The handset registers automatically to the
Gigaset C340/345 base station.
¤ Place the handset in the base with its
display facing forward.
The handset registers automatically. Registration takes around 1 minute. While this
4
Page 6
Setting up the telephone for use
is happening, Registering appears in the
display and the name of the base, Base 1,
flashes.
When the handset has registered, its
screen displays its internal number, e.g.
INT 2 for internal number 2. The handset is
assigned the lowest available internal
number (1-6). If all internal numbers 1–6
have been assigned, number 6 is overwritten if the handset with internal number 6
is in idle status.
Note:
– Automatic registration is not possible when
the base on which you wish to register the
handset is being used to make a call.
– A key press cancels automatic registration.
– If automatic registration does not work the
handset will have to be registered manually
(page 5).
Manual registration Gigaset C34
If the handset does not activate automatically when the batteries are fitted, you
must first charge the batteries.
You must activate manual registration of
the handset at both the handset and the
base station.
After it has registered, the handset returns
to idle status. The internal number of the
handset appears in the display, e.g. INT 2.
Otherwise repeat the procedure.
1. On the handset
Menu§ ¢ Handset ¢ Handset ¢Register
Handset
~ Enter the system PIN of the
base (the default is 0000) and
§OK§. You will see, e.g.
press
Registering Base 1 flashing in
the display.
2. On the base
¤ Initiate registration on the base station
within 60 seconds as described in the
base unit's instructions.
Charging batteries
¤ Plug the mains unit of the charging cra-
dle into a mains power socket.
¤ Place the handset in the cradle with its
display facing forward.
Battery charging is indicated in the top
right of the display by a flashing battery
icon e, V or U. During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the
charge status of the batteries (page 1).
First battery charge and discharge
The correct charge status can only be displayed when the batteries are first fully
charged and discharged through use.
¤ To do this, leave the handset in the
charging cradle without interruption
until the battery icon stops flashing in
the display (approx. 6h). Your handset
need not be switched on for it to
charge.
¤ Once the batteries are fully charged,
remove the handset from the cradle
and do not put it back again until the
batteries are fully discharged.
Note:
– The handset should only be placed in a
base or charging cradle that is designed for
it.
– When the handset is in the cradle, it
charges even if it is switched off.
– If the handset has switched itself off
because the batteries are flat and if it is
then placed in the cradle, it will switch itself
on automatically.
– After the first battery charge and discharge
you may replace your handset in the charging cradle after every call.

Operating the phone
Please note:
u Always repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the

The room monitor call to an internal
number (handset) stops after approx.
3 minutes (depending on the base).

Page 13
Handset settings
During the call, all keys are locked except
the end call key. The room monitor
function remains active after you end the
call. It must be activated again if the handset has been switched off.
When the function is activated, incoming
calls are signalled on the handset without
a ring tone and only appear on the
display. The display and keys are not illuminated and advisory tones are also
turned off.
Caution!
– The connection to which the room monitor
is diverted must not be blocked by an acti-
vated answering machine.
– Ideally the handset should be positioned 1
to 2 metres away from the baby. The micro-
phone must be directed towards the baby.
– You should always check the operation
of the room monitor before use. For
example, test its sensitivity. Check the
connection if you are diverting the room
monitor to an outside number.
– The active room monitor function consider-
ably reduces the operating time of the
handset. Place the handset in the charging
cradle if necessary. This ensures that the
battery does not discharge.
The function is now activated. An exter-
nal number will be called.
