Safety precautions
Safety precautions
Caution:
Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.
Explain their contents to your children as well as the potential hazards associated with using the telephone.
Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the charg-
$
‹
Œ
ing cradle.
Only fit the recommended rechargeable batteries of the sa me typ e (page 15 )
! In other words, do not use any other battery type or non-rechargeable batteries
as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury.
Fit rechargeable batteries with the correct polarity and use them according to
this user guide (polarity symbols can be seen in the handset's battery compartment, page 4).
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical
conditions in your particular environment, for example doctor's surgery.
Do not hold the reverse side of the handset to your ear if the handset is ringing
or if the handsfree function is switched on. Otherwise, you risk developing serious, permanent hearing damage.
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.
Do not install the charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms. The handset
is not splash proof (page 14).
Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard, for
example auto paint shops.
ƒ
If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the user
guide.
All electrical and electronic products should be disposed of separately from the
municipal waste stream via designated collection facilities appointed by the
government or the local authorities.
This crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on the product means the product is covered by the European Directive 2002/96/EC.
The correct disposal and separate collection of your old appliances will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health.
This is a prerequisite for reusing and recycling used electronic and electrical
equipment.
More detailed information on disposal of used equipment is available from your
local authority, your waste disposal service or the dealer from whom you
acquired the product.
Note:
Not all of the functions described in this manual are available in all countries.

Gigaset E36 – more than just a telephone
Gigaset E36 –
more than just a telephone
Your phone not only enables you to store
up to 100 telephone numbers (page 9) – it
can do a whole lot more:
u You can programme the direct dialling
keys of your phone with important
phone numbers. The number is then
dialled by simply pressing a key
(page 10).
u Use the handsfree function (page 7) to
keep your hands free when making a
call.
u Use your handset as an alarm clock
(page 12).
A special SOS procedure is available to you
when your Gigaset E36 is registered on a
Gigaset E365 base station; for details see
the user guide for your E365 base station.
Have fun using your new telephone!
First steps
Fitting the batteries and closing the cover
Caution:
Use only the rechargeable batteries recommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH *
on page 15. In other words, never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other
battery types as this could result in significant
health risks and personal injury. For example,
the outer casing of the batteries or accumulators 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.
* Gigaset Communications GmbH is a trademark
licensee of Siemens AG.
¤ Fit the batteries with the correct polar-
ity (see diagram).
The polarity is indicated in the battery
compartment.
Pack contents
The packaging contains a Gigaset E36
handset, a charging cradle, a mains
adapter, two batteries, a battery cover, a
belt clip and a user guide.
Setting up the handset for use
Please refer to the end of this user guide
for information on connecting and, if
appropriate, wall-mounting the charging
cradle.
4
¤ First align the notches on the side of
the battery cover with the protrusions
on the inside of the casing.
¤ Then press down the cover so that it
clicks into place.
Attaching the belt clip
There are notches for attaching the belt
clip on the side of the handset at the same
height as the display.
¤ Press the belt clip onto the back of the
handset so that the protrusions on the
belt clip engage with the notches.
Page 6
First steps
You can also attach a cord for carrying the
handset in your hand or wearing it around
your neck.
Opening the battery cover
¤ If fitted, remove the belt clip.
¤ Reach into the housing cavity and pull
the battery cover upwards.
Connection socket for headset
You will find suitable headsets on the
Internet at www.plantronics.com
Registering
You have to register your Gigaset E36 on a
base station before you can use it. It can
be registered on up to four base stations.
The registration process depends on the
particular base station.
Automatically registering the Gigaset E36
on the Gigaset E360/365
Requirement: the handset must not
already be registered on any base station.
Registering the handset on the Gigaset
E360/365 base station occurs automatically.
.
¤ Place the handset in the charging cra-
dle of the base station with its display
facing forward.
You will hear a confirmation tone.
Automatic registration can take up to
5 minutes. While registration is in
progress the screen displays Registering .
The handset is assigned the lowest unassigned internal number (1–4). If several
handsets are registered on the base, the
internal number is shown in the display
after registration, for example 2. This
means that the handset has been assigned
the internal number 2.
Notes:
– Automatic registration is only possible if
the base station on which you wish to register the handset is not being used to make
a call.
– A key press cancels automatic registration.
– If four handsets are already registered on a
Gigaset E360/365 base station there are
two options:
– The handset with the internal number 4
is in idle status: the handset you wish to
register is assigned the number 4. The
handset that was previously number 4 is
de-registered.
– The handset with the internal number 4
is being used: the handset you wish to
register cannot be registered.
– If automatic registration does not work, the
handset will have to be registered manu-
ally.
Manually registering the Gigaset E36 on the Gigaset E360/365
You must activate manual registration of
the handset on both the handset and the
base station.
After it has registered, the handset returns
to idle status. If several handsets are registered on the base, the internal number is
shown in the display after registration, for
example 2.
The registration process is cancelled after
60 seconds. If the handset has not registered within this time, repeat the process.

Charging the batteries
¢ §OK§.
¤ Plug the mains adapter of the charging
cradle into the power socket.
¤ Place the handset in the charging cra-
dle with its display facing forward.
To charge the batteries, leave the handset
in the charging cradle. Battery charging is
indicated in the top right of the display by
a flashing battery icon e if the handset
is switched on. During handset operation,
the battery icon indicates the charge status of the batteries (page 1).
Initial charging and discharging of batteries
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. 6 hours).
¤ Once the batteries are fully charged,
remove the handset from the charging
cradle and do not put it back again until
the batteries are fully discharged.
Note:
After the first battery charge and discharge
you may replace your handset in the charging
cradle after every call.
Please ensure the following:
u Always repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and reinsert them.
u The batteries may warm up as they are
charging. This is not dangerous.
u After a time the charge capacity of the
batteries will decrease for technical reasons.

typographical conventions used in this user
