adapter),
u two batteries, u one battery cover, u one belt clip, u one user guide.

Setting up the handset for use

Inserting the batteries

Caution:
Only use the rechargeable batteries recom­mended by Siemens (page 19)! This means: Never use conventional batteries (non­rechargeable) 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
¤ First align the battery cover with the
notches on the lugs on the inside of the housing.
¤ Then press the cover closed so that it
clicks into place.
Connecting up the charging cradle and mounting it on the wall (if required) is described at the end of these instructions.

First Steps
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 lugs on the belt clip click into the notches.
Opening the battery cover
¤ If fitted, remove the belt clip. ¤ Slide your finger nail or a screw driver
down the notch to separate the belt clip from the cover. Push the entire cover upwards so that it unclicks.
Automatic registration Gigaset S45 to Gigaset S450/S455
Important: The handset must not already be registered to any base station.
Registering the handset to the Gigaset S450 base station occurs automatically.
¤ Place the handset in the base with its
display facing forward.
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. When the handset has registered, its screen displays its internal number, e.g. INT 2 for internal number 2. The handset is assigned the lowest available internal number (1-6). If all internal numbers 1-6 have been assigned, number 6 is overwritten, pro­vided the handset with the internal number 6 is in idle status.
Notes:
– Automatic registration is not possible when
the base station on which you wish to reg­ister the handset is being used to make a call.
– Each key press interrupts the automatic
registration.
– If automatic registration does not work,
you will have to register the handset manu­ally.

Registering your phone

Before you can use your Gigaset S45 you must register it to a base station. It can be registered to a maximum of four base sta­tions. The actual registration procedure will depend on the type of base station.
Manual registration Gigaset S45
If the handset does not switch on auto­matically when the batteries are fitted, you must first charge the batteries.
You must activate manual registration of the handset at both the handset and the base station.
After it has registered, the handset returns to idle status. The handset's internal number is shown in the display e.g. INT 1. If not, repeat the procedure.

display facing forward.
To charge the batteries, leave the handset in the charging cradle. If the handset is activated, the flashing battery icon e in the top right of the display indicates that the batteries are charging. During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge status of the batteries (page 1).
Initial charging and discharging of batteries
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 continuously for ten hours. Your handset need not be switched on for it to charge.
¤ 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.
Notes:
– The handset should only be placed in a
base station or charging cradle that is designed for it.
– 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 charging cradle, it will switch itself on automatically.
– After the first battery charge and discharge
you may replace your handset in the charg­ing cradle 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 become warm as
they are charging. This is not danger­ous.
u After a time the charge capacity of the
batteries will decrease for technical rea­sons.
