Safety precautions
Warning
Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.
Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to
your children.
Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base.
Only use the recommended, rechargeable batteries (
could otherwise result in significant health risks and personal injury.
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical
conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.
Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when
speaker 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 charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms.
The base and charging cradle are not splashproof (
Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard
(e.g. paint shops).
If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the
user guide.
Please remove faulty bases from use or have them repaired by our Service
department, as they could interfere with other wireless services.

Gigaset C590 – more than just a telephone
Gigaset C590 – more than just a telephone
Your telephone sets new standards for the way you communicate at home.
The large TFT display, user-friendly keypad and clearly laid out menu are very
simple to use.
It can do a whole lot more:
u Store anniversaries such as birthdays in your phone and it will remind you
of them in advance.
u Allocate important people to one of six VIP groups so you can identify impor-
tant calls from the ringtone and the colour of the allocated VIP group.
u If you only want to accept calls when you can see the number, you can set
your phone to only ring when the phone number is transferred.
u You can assign important numbers to the number keys on your handset.
The number is then dialled by simply pressing the key.
u Set the display to show in large print to increase readability during certain
important situations (e.g. in the directory and in lists).
u Set the menu display to suit your individual requirements so that only the
most important functions (standard mode) or all functions are displayed
(expert mode).
u Gigaset Green Home – be environmentally aware when using your phone.

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:

or other electrical devices.
u Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.
