Safety precautions

◆ Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.

‹

◆ Explain their contents to your children, and the potential hazards

associated with using the telephone.

Fit only the recommended rechargeable batteries (page 136) and ensure they are of the same type! Do not use other types of batteries or non-rechargeable batteries, as they could damage health and cause personal injury.

Ensure correct polarity when fitting rechargeable batteries, and use the battery type specified in these instructions (you will see polarity symbols in the handset's battery compartments).

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical conditions in your particular environment (e. g. medical practice).

The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.

Do not install the base station in bathrooms or shower rooms (page 133). The handset and base station are not watertight.

Drivers must not use their phones while driving (walkie-talkie function).

Switch off your phone while on board an aircraft (walkie-talkie function). Ensure that it cannot be switched on again accidentally.

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.

Dispose of the batteries and phone in accordance with environmental regulations.

Not all of the functions described in this manual are available in all countries.

Setting up the handset for use

Removing the protective film

The display is protected by a plastic film. Please remove the protective film!

Inserting the batteries

Use only the rechargeable batteries recommended by Siemens on page 136, i. e. on no account may a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery type be used, otherwise serious damage to health

Insert batteries with correct polarity (see schematic diagram).

The polarity is indicated in/on the battery compartment.

and property cannot be ruled out, e.g. the outer casing of the batteries 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.

Closing the battery cover

Position the cover pointing slightly downwards and push it up until it clicks into position.

Opening the battery cover

Press below the upper curve on the battery cover and slide down.

Setting up the handset for use

Initial charging and discharging of batteries

If the handset is activated, the battery charging process is indicated on the handset by the flashing battery icon e.

During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge level of the batteries (page 1). The correct charge level can only be displayed if the batteries are first fully charged and discharged.

◆ To do this, leave the handset in the charging cradle uninterrupted for 8 hours.

Your handset need not be switched on for it to charge.

◆ Once the batteries are fully charged, remove the handset from the cradle and do not

put it back again until the batteries are fully discharged.

◆ After the first battery charge and discharge you may replace your

handset in the charging cradle after every call.

Please remember:

◆ Always repeat the charging and discharging procedure if you remove the batteries

from the handset and re-insert them.

◆ The batteries may warm up as they are charging. This is not dangerous.

◆ After a time the charge capacity of the batteries will decrease for technical reasons.

◆ When the handset is in the cradle, it charges even if it is switched off.

◆ If the handset has switched itself off because the batteries are flat and

it is then placed in the cradle, it will switch itself on automatically.

◆ Only place the handset in the charging cradle that is intended for it.

Your handset is now ready for operation. To correctly record the time of calls and, if applicable, messages you must now set the date and time. Depending on the network provider, the date and time are updated automatically by the telephone network with every outgoing call. All the settings necessary to operate the telephone can be made easily with the Getting started wizard (page 15).

To register handsets, refer to page 21.

Attaching the belt clip

There are notches for attaching the belt clip on the side of the handset at approximately 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.

The belt clip's clasp must be pointing towards the battery compartment.

Setting up the base station – Getting started wizard

A few settings are necessary before using your telephone. The Getting started wizard (page 16) is designed to help you with this. It can be opened at any time using your handset. The following settings can be made one after the other.

◆ Date and time

◆ Show/hide answering machine 1...3 (on Gigaset with integrated answering

machine)

◆ Determine/enter MSNs for your phone connection

◆ Set type of device for the devices connected

◆ Set receive MSN

◆ Set send MSN

◆ Outside line code (when using a PABX)

What is an MSN?

MSN = Multiple Subscriber Number. You can apply for up to ten different telephone numbers for one multiple ISDN connection. An MSN is one of the phone numbers assigned to you without an area code.

Your telephone uses the MSN entirely as you require. The following differentiation is made:

◆ Receive MSN: Phone numbers you can be called on. You can assign the receive

MSNs to specific internal subscribers (terminals) (page 104). Incoming calls are only forwarded to the terminals to which the relevant receive MSN has been assigned. Terminals could be handsets or answering machines.

◆ Send MSN: Phone numbers that are identified to the person you are calling. The net-

work provider calculates charges based on the send MSNs. You can assign a fixed send MSN to each internal subscriber (page 104).

Possible internal subscribers:

Depending on the range of functions of your base station, you can assign internal numbers to the following internal subscribers. The internal numbers available can be found in the user guide for the base station.

Int11 – Int18: Handsets Int10: Base station

(CX203isdn, CX253isdn, SX303isdn, SX353isdn)

Int21 – Int22: Analogue devices

(SX205isdn, SX255isdn, SX303isdn, SX353isdn)

Int40: PC via USB connection

(SX205isdn, SX255isdn, SX303isdn, SX353isdn)

Int41 – Int48: Data modules Int51 – Int53: Bluetooth devices (SX303isdn, SX353isdn) Int91 – Int93: Integrated answering machines

Setting up the base station – Getting started wizard

Example of how to assign an MSN:

You have requested four MSNs, two for business use (MSN1, MSN2) and two for private purposes (MSN3, MSN4). Four handsets are connected to a base station. Two handsets (Int.11 and 12) and the answering machine AM 91 are intended for business use, and two handsets (Int.13 and 14) and the answering machine AM 92 are intended for private use.

Internal subscribers Use Receive MSN Send MSN

Handsets Int.11, 12 Business MSN1, MSN2 MSN1 Answering

machine Handset Int.13 Private MSN3 MSN3 Handset Int.14 MSN4 MSN4 Answering

machine

AM 91 MSN1, MSN2 ---

AM 92 MSN3, MSN4 ---

Because internal 11 and internal 12 handsets are each assigned two (receive) MSNs, they can use the MSN next call feature (page 105). They can switch to (send) MSN2 during each outgoing external call. In this example, the internal 13 and 14 handsets cannot do this.

Registering/deregistering handsets

The handset can be registered on up to four base stations. If all internal numbers for wireless terminals are already assigned on your telephone,

before registering make sure that you deregister another handset that is no longer required (page 21).

You must initiate handset registration on the handset and on the base station.

1. Prepare base station for registration (see user guide for base station).

2. On the handset (within 60 sec.):

¢ Ð ¢ Handset ¢ Register H/Set

Select base station (1–4) and confirm, e. g. Base 1.

s Base 1

INT11: Int.11

After registration the handset reverts to idle status. The handset's internal number is shown in the display.

Enter the system PIN of the base station (the default is 0000) and confirm. The display shows Reg- str.Procedure and the name of the base station, e. g. Base 1.

Once the handset has located the base station, the list of free internal numbers is shown in the display.

Select the internal number and confirm,

e. g. INT11: Int.11.

The handset cancels the base station search after 60 seconds. If the handset has not registered within this time, repeat the process.

Deregistering handsets
