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 approved, rechargeable batteries! Never use conventional (nonrechargeable) batteries as this could damage your health and cause injury. Use the batteries as directed in this user guide (page 51).

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 bathrooms or shower rooms. The handset and base station are not splash proof (page 49).

Do not use the 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.

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 appliance will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health. It is a precondition for reuse and recycling of used electrical and electronic equipment.

For further information on disposing of your used equipment, please contact your local council refuse centre or the dealer you purchased the product from.

Please note:

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

Setting up the handset for use

Inserting the batteries

Caution:

Use only the rechargeable batteries recommended by Siemens (page 51). Never use conventional (non-rechargeable) batteries 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.

Closing the battery cover

¤ First align the notches on the side of

the battery cover with the lugs on the

inside of the casing.

¤ Then press 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.

¤ Fit the batteries with the correct polar-

ity (see diagram).

The polarity is indicated in/on the battery compartment.

First Steps

Opening the battery cover

¤ If fitted, remove belt clip. ¤ Insert a fingernail into the headset

socket cavity and pull the battery cover upwards.

Placing the handset in the base station and registering

¤ Place the handset in the base with its

display facing upwards.

The handset registers automatically. Registration takes around 1 minute. During this time 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.

Please note:

– 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 the

handset will have to be registered manually (page 37).

– You can change the name of the handset

(page 40).

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

Please note:

– If the handset has switched itself off

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

– Only place the handset in the base or

charging cradle that is intended for it.

For questions and problems see page 49.

Headset socket

You can connect the following types of headset (with jack connector): HAMA Plantronics M40, MX100 and MX150.

Initial charging and discharging of batteries

If the handset is activated, the flashing battery icon e in the top right of the display indicates that the batteries are being charged.

During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge status 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

base or charging cradle continuously

for ten hours. Your handset need not

be switched on for it to charge.

¤ Afterwards, remove the handset from

the base station and do not put it back

again until the batteries are fully dis-

charged.

Please note:

After the first battery charge and discharge you may replace your handset in its base after every call.

Please remember:

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.

Your answering machine is set with a standard announcement.

¤ Set the date and the time, for example

to ensure the correct time of incoming calls is recorded.

Automatic network provider code (preselection)

You can specify a call-by-call number (preselection number), which is automat- ically placed in front of numbers according to two lists.

u The list "with preselection" contains

the "rule" for dialling code numbers or the first digits of dialling code numbers with which you wish the preselection number to be used.

u The list "without preselection" con-

tains the "exception to the rule". Example: You have entered 08 for "with preselec-

tion". Now all numbers that start with 08 will be dialled with preselection.

However, if you require, for example, that 081 is still dialled without preselection, enter 081 for "without preselection".

When dialling, after pressing the talk/ handsfree key the first digits of the dialled number are compared with both lists:

u The preselection number is not

inserted in front if the dialled number –matches no entry in either list – matches an entry in the list "with-

out preselection"

u The preselection number is inserted in

front if the first digits of the dialled number match with only one entry in the list "with preselection".

SMS mailboxes

The General Mailbox is the default setting. Anyone can access this mailbox and it cannot be protected by a PIN. You can also set up three personal mailboxes and protect these with a PIN. Each mailbox is identified by a name and a "Mailbox ID" (a kind of extension number).

Please note:

u If you operate a number of devices

(base stations) with SMS functionality on a single phone line, then each SMS mailbox ID may only occur once. In this case you must also change the preset ID of the general mailbox ("0").

u You can only use personal mailboxes if

your service provider supports such a function. You can tell that this is supported by the fact that a star (*) is added to the number of a (preset) SMS centre.

you can reset it by restoring the base station's factory settings. This will

delete all messages from all mailboxes.
