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).

OK

Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear
when it is ringing or when the handsfree func­tion is activated. This can cause severe, perma­nent hearing damage.
The handset may cause an unpleasant hum­ming noise in hearing aids.

Do not install the phone in a bathroom or
shower room. The handset and base station
are not splashproof.

Do not use the telephone in environments
subject to explosion hazard (e.g. auto paint
shops).

If you give your Gigaset to someone else,
make sure you also give them the user guide.

Step 1: Connecting the base station

Step 2: Setting up the handset

Note:
The display is protected by a plastic film.

Please remove the protective film!

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 rec-

ommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH *
(page 8), i.e. never use a conventional (non­rechargeable) 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 trademark

licensee of Siemens AG.

◆ Insert the plug into the socket as shown in the

enlarged view.

◆ Insert the battery pack.

◆ Place the cords in the cord routing.

First connect the mains unit (230 V) to power

1 and then connect the phone jack to phone

cord

2, as shown above. Place the cords in the cord

cord
recesses. The two cords must be plugged in at all
times.

◆ Only use the mains unit supplied.

◆ If you ever purchase another phone cord from

a store, ensure that the phone conductors are
correctly connected: 3-4 connection of the tele­phone conductors.

Closing the battery cover

Insert the cover into the top end of the battery
compartment and press down until it clicks into
place.

Opening the battery cover

Place your fingernail between the cover and the
housing and pull the cover upwards.

Step 3: Registering the handset to the base station and charging the battery pack

Precondition: The handset is not already regis­tered to a base station.

Registering the handset to the Gigaset C360 base
station occurs automatically. Place the handset in
the charging cradle of the base station with its dis-
play facing forward. You will hear a confirmation
tone. Leave the handset in the base station until it
is registered.
Automatic registration can take up to 5 minutes.
While this is happening, Registering flashes in the
screen. The handset is assigned the lowest unas­signed internal number (1–4). If several handsets
are registered to 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.

Charging the battery pack

To charge the battery pack, leave the handset in
the base station for approx. 13 hours. The battery
pack is now fully charged. The charge status of the
battery pack is correctly displayed only after unin­terrupted charging/discharging. Therefore you
should not interrupt the charging procedure.

Charging is electronically controlled to prevent the
battery pack from 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 9).
Once the phone is registered and the time set, the
idle display looks as shown on page 1.
