Gigaset CX590 ISDN – more than just a telephone

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:

uUse your Gigaset as a PABX – register up to six handsets. Assign each device its own phone number (MSN).

uConfiguring 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).

uYou can save anniversaries, e.g., birthdays, in your phone and it will remind you of them in advance.

uAllocate 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.

uIf 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.

uYou can assign important numbers to the number keys on your phone (quick dial). You can then dial the number by simply pressing a key.

uSet the display to large print to increase readability in particularly important screens (e.g., the directory and lists).

uGigaset Green Home — be environmentally aware when using your phone. Details about our ECO DECT products can be found at www.gigaset.com/service

Have fun using your new telephone!

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).

ƒIf 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.

First steps

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:

uNever 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-

21

 

ephone jack 1and

 

insert the cables into

 

¤

the cable ducts.

 

Then connect the

1

power adapter 2.

Please note:

uThe 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.

Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover

Warning

Only use rechargeable batteries (¢ page 74) recommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH i.e., never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery, as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury. For example, the outer casing of the batteries could be damaged 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.

¤Insert the batteries with the polarity in the correct direction.

The polarity is indicated in/on the battery compartment.

a

To open the battery cover, for instance to replace the batteries, insert a coin into the cavity on the casing, then pull the battery cover in an upward direction.

¤ First insert the battery

bcover at the top a.

¤Then press the cover b until it clicks into place.

10

First steps

Attaching the belt clip

The handset has notches on each side to attach the belt clip.

¤To attach — press the belt clip onto the back of the handset so that the protrusions on the belt clip engage with the notches.

Placing handset on the base.

¤ Place the handset in the base with its display facing forward.

Each handset is registered with the base at the factory. You do not need to register the handset again. If you wish to use your handset with a different base or use additional handsets with your base, you have to register the handset manually

(¢ page 54).

To charge the batteries, leave the handset in the base.

Please note

The handset must only be placed in the base provided for it.

11

First steps

Initial charging and discharging of the batteries

The correct charge level can only be displayed if the batteries are first fully charged and discharged.

¤ Place the handset in the base for ten hours.

¤ Then remove the handset from the base and do not

10 h replace it until the batteries are fully discharged.

Please note

uAfter the first battery charge and discharge, you can replace your handset in its base after every call.

uAlways 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.

uAfter a while, the charge capacity of the batteries will decrease for technical reasons.

ISDN wizard: finding/entering the connection's MSNs

Several personal numbers (MSNs) were provided by the network provider when you received your ISDN connection confirmation. You can save up to ten numbers (MSNs) on your phone. If no MSN has been entered, you can do the following with the ISDN wizard:

uAssign the MSNs for your connection i.e., call them up from the exchange (automatic MSN assignment) or enter them manually.

Please note: not every ISDN provider supports automatic MSN finding. If this

feature is not supported, then you must enter the MSNs for your connection manually (¢ page 63).

Connection wizard

The connection wizard starts automatically once the ISDN wizard has finished. You can use connection wizard to assign the previously configured numbers to internal parties as well as to receive and, where necessary, send connections.

uReceive connections are numbers (MSNs) on which you can be called. You can assign the MSNs for internal parties as the receive connection. Incoming calls are only diverted to the internal parties to which the relevant receive connection has been assigned.

17

Setting up the phone – installation wizard

uSend connections are the numbers (MSNs) that are sent to the called party. The network provider calculates charges based on the send connections. You can assign a fixed MSN as a send connection to each internal party.

uEvery MSN can be both a send and receive connection. You can assign each MSN to multiple handsets as a receive connection.

After registration/getting started, the handsets are assigned all MSNs as receive connections. The base number (usually MSN1) is assigned to the devices as a send connection.
