Safety precautions

Caution:

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.

Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base

‹

station.

Fit only the recommended, rechargeable batteries (page 61)! Donot use any other battery type or non-rechargeable batteries as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury.

Insert rechargeable batteries with the correct polarity and use in accordance with this user guide (polarity symbols are provided in the handset battery compartments).

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.

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

Do not install the base station in a bathroom or shower room, as the handset and base station are not splash-proof (page 58).

Switch off your phone (incl. Walk and Talk function) while on board an aircraft. Ensure that it cannot be switched on again accidentally.

Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard, e.g. auto 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.

Note:

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

Gigaset S445 – More than just a telephone

Your telephone not only enables you send and receive SMS via the fixed network and store up to 200 telephone numbers and email addresses (page 15) – your telephone can do a whole lot more:

u You can programme the keys of your

phone with important numbers or frequently used functions. The number is then dialled or the function started by simply pressing a key (page 47).

u You can designate important people as

VIPs so you can tell important calls from the ring tone (page 16).

u Store a voice pattern for important

directory entries – the telephone will dial "on command" (page 17).

u You can store appointments (page 52)

and anniversaries (page 17) in your phone and it will remind you of them in advance.

Have fun using your new telephone!

Setting up the telephone for use

Installing the base station

The base station and integrated charger is designed for operation in enclosed, dry areas at temperatures ranging from +5 °C to +45 °C.

Set up the base station at a central point in the apartment or house.

Please note:

u Never expose the telephone to heat

sources, direct sunlight, other electrical

appliances.

u Protect your Gigaset from moisture,

dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.

Range and reception strength

Range:

u up to 300 m in the open u up to 50 m in buildings

Setting up the handset for use

Inserting batteries

Caution:

Use only the rechargeable batteries recommended by Siemens on page 61! Never use conventional batteries (non-rechargeable) or other battery types as this may cause significant damage to health and property. For example, 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.

¤ Fit the batteries with the correct polar-

ity (see diagram). The polarity is indicated in/on the battery

compartment.

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 bat-

tery cover and slide down.

Setting up the telephone for use

Placing handset in base station and registering

¤ Place the handset in the base station

with its display facing forward.

The handset registers automatically. Registration takes around 1 minute. During this process Regstr.Procedure appears in the display and the name of the base station flashes e.g. Base 1. The handset will be assigned the lowest unassigned internal number (1–6).

This will appear in the display when registration is complete, e.g. INT 1. This means that the number 1 has been assigned. If the internal numbers 1–6 are already assigned to other units, the number 6 is overwritten.

Notes:

– Automatic registration is only possible

while no-one is making calls using the base station.

– Each key press interrupts the automatic

registration.

– If automatic registration does not work,

you will have to register the handset manually.

– You can change the name of the handset

(page 43).

To charge the batteries, leave the handset in the charging cradle.

Notes:

– When the handset is in the base station, it

charges even if it is switched off.

– If the handset has switched itself off

because the batteries are flat and is then placed in the cradle, it will switch itself on automatically.

– The handset must only be placed in the

designated base station.

For questions and problems see page 58.

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 status of the batteries (page 1). The correct charge status 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 10

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.

Note:

After the initial charge and discharge you may replace your handset in the charging cradle after every call.

Please note:

u Always repeat the charging and dis-

charging procedure if you remove the

batteries from the handset and insert

them in again.

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 rea-

sons.

Your phone is now ready for use.

Your answering machine is set with a standard announcement.

¤ Set the date and the time(page 9), for

example to ensure the correct time of

incoming calls is recorded.

Attaching the belt clip

There are notches on the side of the handset side at approximately the same height as the display for attaching the belt clip.

¤ Press the belt clip onto the back of the

handset so that the protrusions on the

belt clip click into the notches. The belt clip's clasp must be pointing

towards the battery compartment.

You can store a voice pattern for a total of 30 directory entries. Entries assigned with voice patterns are marked with ´.

Recording voice patterns

Record the voice pattern in quiet surroundings. The handset should be around 25 cm (10 inches) away from you. The voice pattern can be 1.5 seconds long.
