GIGASET. INSPIRING CONVERSATION.

Gigaset CX590 ISDN – more than just a telephone

Your ISDN connection offers you two telephone lines simultaneously. The large TFT display, user-friendly keypad and clearly laid out menu make your

phone very simple to use. Your phone can do a whole lot more:

u Use your Gigaset as a PABX – register up to six handsets. Assign each device its

own phone number (MSN).

u Configuring your Gigaset is easy thanks to the wizards – they determine the

MSNs for your ISDN connection (provider-specific) and help you to register handsets and assign send and receive MSNs to the handset (¢ page 16).

u You can save anniversaries, e.g., 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 important

calls from the ringtone and the colour of the assigned VIP group.

u If you only want to accept calls when you can see the number, you can set your

handset to only ring when the phone number is transmitted.

u You can assign important numbers to the number keys on your phone (quick

dial). You can then dial the number by simply pressing a key.

u Set the display to large print to increase readability in particularly important

screens (e.g., the directory and lists).

u Gigaset Green Home — be environmentally aware when using your phone.

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.

Use only the power adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base.

Use only the recommended, rechargeable batteries (¢ page 74) 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 specific location 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. This may cause 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 and charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms. The base and charger are not splashproof (¢ page 74).

Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard (e.g., paint shops).

If you give your phone 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

Not all functions described in this user guide are available in all countries or with all network providers.

Setting up the base

The base is designed for use in dry rooms in a temperature range of +5°C to +45°C. ¤ Set up the base on a level, non-slip surface at a central point in the building or

mount the base on the wall (¢ page 78).

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 is activated (¢ page 53).

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, marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.

Please note:

u Never expose the telephone to the effects 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 1 and insert the cables into the cable ducts.

¤ Then connect the

power adapter 2.

First steps

Please note:

u The power adapter

must always be connected, as the phone will not operate without a mains connection.

u Only use the power adapter and phone cord supplied.

its base after every call.

u Always repeat the charging and discharging procedure if you remove the

batteries from the handset and reinsert them.

u The batteries may warm up during charging. This is not dangerous. u After a while, the charge capacity of the batteries will decrease for technical

reasons.

Reduced energy consumption

Reducing radiation

The radiation from your telephone is reduced automatically:

u Handset: The closer the handset is to the

base, the lower the radiation.

u Base station: The radiation is reduced to

virtually zero when only one handset is registered and the handset is placed in the base.

You can reduce the radiation from the handset and base even more by using Eco Mode:

u Eco Mode

Reduces the radiation of the base station and handset by 80% - whether you are making a call or not. Eco Mode reduces the range of the base station by approx. 50%. Using Eco Mode always makes sense when a reduced range is sufficient.

Switching off radiation

Using a handset as a room monitor

If the room monitor is activated, the phone number saved in the system is called as soon as a set noise level is reached. You can save an internal or external number in your handset as the destination number. All of the handset keys are deactivated except for the display keys.

The room monitor call to an external number is cancelled after approximately 90 seconds. The room monitor call to an internal number (handset) is cancelled after approx. 3 minutes (depending on the base). When the room monitor is activated, all keys are locked except for the end call key. The handset's speaker is muted.

When room monitor mode is activated, incoming calls to the handset are indicated without a ringtone and are only shown on the display. The display and keypad are not illuminated and advisory tones are also turned off.

If you accept an incoming call, the room monitor is suspended for the duration of the call, but the function remains activated.
