Safety precautions

Caution:

Read the safety precautions and the operating instructions before use. Explain their contents to your children, and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone.

Only use the power supply unit specified on the underside of the base station/

‹

charger.

Only insert the recommended, chargeable batteries (page 64)! I.e. no other battery type and non-rechargeable batteries because these could damage health or cause personal injury.

Insert the batteries as indicated by their polarity and use them as described in this user guide (icons are printed in the battery compartments of the handset).

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Note the technical conditions of the respective environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.

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

Do not place the base station in bathrooms or showers. The handset and the base station are not water proof (page 62).

Drivers must not use their phones while driving (walky-talky function). Ensure that it cannot be switched on again accidentally.

Switch off the phone (incl. walky-talky function) when on board an aircraft. Ensure that it cannot be switched on again accidentally.

Do not use the 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.

Note:

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

Gigaset S645 – more than just a phone

Your phone offers you the possibility of, sending and receiving text messages over the fixed network and saving up to 200 phone numbers on the base station and handset – your phone can do even more:

u Assign important numbers or fre-

quently used functions to the keys. The number is then selected or the function started by pressing a key (page 50).

u You can designate important people as

VIPs so you can tell important calls from the ringtone (page 21).

u Store a voice pattern for important

directory entries – your handset will dial "at your command" (page 22).

u Store appointments (page 55) and

anniversaries (page 22) on your handset – your Gigaset S44 will remind you in time.

u Use the mailboxes of your answering

machine – this gives up to three persons their "own" answering machine (page 37).

u Record a Call Director announcement –

an external caller can then reach the desired partner directly (page 58).

Have fun with your new phone!

Setting up the telephone for use

u a charger (incl. power supply unit), u a belt clip, u one user guide.
