Safety notes

Handset

Danger:

• Do not use the handset in potentially explosive atmospheres.

• To avoid mutual interference, do not operate the handset in the
vicinity of electronic equipment.

• Do not use the handset in wet rooms! Devices are not splash­proof.

• A transmitter signal is emitted by your handset. Please observe
safety procedures for your area.

Note:

The ringing tone, signal tones and speakerphone talking (speaker­phone mode) are played over the loudspeaker. Do not hold the tele­phone to your ear when it is ringing or if speakerphone mode is

• For future charging: you can place your handset in the charging
shell each time it is used. Charging is electronically controlled
which ensures that the batteries are charged optimally.

• you make between networked communication sys­tems, forexample, to different company locations.

External calls are calls that you conduct with users of
the public telephone network.

Speakerphone mode

Features

Speakerphone mode offers you the following advantages:

• Other persons can listen to and participate in the call.

• Your hands are free.

• When dialing, you can hear the ringtone, for exam­ple, without having to lift the handset to your ear.

Speakerphone mode can be used effectively up to a
background noise level of 50 dB (A), e.g. office environ­ment.

Activating speakerphone mode

Speakerphone mode can be activated during a call,
when dialing or when answering a call:

d Press the Speakerphone key. The Speakerphone key

lights up. Inform the other party when you want to acti­vate the speakerphone to let others listen in.

Note:

Make sure you switch back to handset mode be­fore you return the telephone directly to your ear.
In this way you can avoid causing damage to your
hearing.

Switching between speakerphone and handset
mode

d Press the Speakerphone key. The handset switches

from speakerphone to handset mode or vice versa.

The Speakerphone key lights up if speakerphone mode
is active. It does not light up if speakerphone mode is
deactivated and handset mode is activated.

Note:

If you wish to replace the handset in the charg­ing shell during a call, forexample, because the
batteries are flat, hold down the Speakerphone
key to prevent the call from being cleared down.

Conducting calls with the headset

The handset can be used with a corded and cordless
headset.

Corded headset

You can connect a corded headset to the port on the
side. The headset must have a jack (2.5 mm).

The earpiece inset and microphone functions are acti­vated on the headset once it is connected.

Cordless headset

You can use a cordless, Bluetooth headset with your
handset. This means your hands are free while making
calls, and there are no annoying cables, forexample,
when you are working at your computer or when you
are on the road.

Your Bluetooth headset must be registered on your
handset before you can use it for the first time. After
this, you can continue to use your Bluetooth headset
until you decide to de-register it.

Note:

• Theoretically, third parties can tap Bluetooth
connections.

• To improve protection against unauthorized
tapping, de-register any Bluetooth devices
you no longer require.

During a call, a second caller is not signaled at the Blue­tooth headset.

The phonebook entries are generally sorted in alphabet­ical order by surname. Spaces and digits have first pri­ority here. If the phonebook only contains a subscriber’s
first name, this is listed instead of the surname in the
sequence.

The sort sequence is as follows:

1. S p a c e

2. Digits (0 - 9)

3. Letters (alphabetical)

4. Other characters

If you want to change the sequence of entries in the al­phabetical list, you could insert a space or a digit before
the first letter of the surname. These entries then move
to the beginning of the phonebook. Names with a star
in front of them are at the end of the phonebook.

Making calls – enhanced functions

Step by Step

Using dual-tone multifrequency
signaling

Your handset operates on the basis of digital informa­tion transmission. However, certain applications,
forexample, answering machines, can only be operated
using analog technology. For this you must send signals
using the dual-tone multifrequency signaling (DTMF)
process.

Depending on how your system is configured (automat­ic tone dialing on or off - to be configured by the service
engineer) you must first switch to DTMF dialing. This
means, forexample, that you can communicate with a
variety of voice storage systems.

You will find further details in the operating instructions
for the relevant applications.

If you on a call, DMTF dialing is always activated.

Data communication with the PC

So that your handset can communicate with your PC,
you must install the "Gigaset QuickSync" application on
your PC (download for free at www.gigaset.com/
gigasets790).

Once you have installed "Gigaset Quick-Sync" you can
connect the handset to your PC via Bluetooth
Æ Page 70 or a USB data cableÆ Page 17.

If you want to use the Bluetooth connection on your PC,
your PC must have a corresponding dongle.

Transferring data

Launch the "Gigaset QuickSync" application. Now you
can:

• Synchronize your handset’s address book with Out­look,

• Transfer CLIP images (.bmp) from the computer to
the handset,

• Transfer images (.bmp) as a screensaver from the
computer to the handset.

• Transfer sounds (ringtone melodies) from the PC to
the handset.

Data transfer is shown on the display during data trans­fer between the handset and PC. No inputs are possible
via the keyboard when this operation is active and in­coming calls are ignored.

Taking care of the handset

Removing everyday dirt

To clean the handset and the charging shell, simply wipe them with a damp
or anti-static cloth. Never use a dry cloth!
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents.

After contact with liquids

1. Deactivate the handset immediately. Do NOT activate it!

2. Remove the batteries immediately. Leave the battery compartment
open.

3. Allow the liquid to drain off:
– Hold the handset in a horizontal position with the open battery com-

partment facing down.

– Hold the handset in a vertical position with the open battery compart-

ment facing down. Shake the handset gently, tilting it slightly back
and forth.

– Dab all components dry and then leave the handset in a warm spot

(not beside a microwave, oven, etc...) for at least 72 hours with open
battery compartment and keypad facing down.

The handset can be put back into operation once it is completely dry.

Storage

To avoid damage, the handset should not be stored with sharp objects,
such as, knives or tools, etc. We recommend using a protective pouch
