Operating the answering machine

Your Gigaset SL 3501 is equipped with an answering machine that will record messages in your absence or allow you to screen calls and answer them selectively. The answering machine in the Gigaset SL 3501 is automatically turned on when you install your phone and completely operated through any registered SL 30 handset.

Operating the answering machine is made easier by menus and displays on the handset and by announcements that you can hear on the handset.

Unless you set the date and time (see page 8), recorded messages will not be “time stamped”.

In addition to the telephone's answering machine, you can use an “voice mail service” offered by your local network provider (e.g. telco voice). None of the following functions relates to the network provider's voice mail service. Check with your network provider for these services.

Turning on and off the answering machine

Your answering machine is automatically turned on and ready for operation once your base station has been installed.

Room monitor

You can use any Gigaset SL 30 handset to monitor a room. If a certain noise level is reached (for example a baby crying or a door opening) the handset will automatically dial the number you stored. When you answer the call you will hear the noises in the room being monitored. The distance from the handset to the object or space being monitored should be at least 3–6 ft.

The number you store can be:

● An internal number - An additional registered hand-

set required.

● An external number - A cell phone number or

another fixed network number where you can be contacted (i.e. your neighbor’s home number).

If you use an external telephone number for the room monitor you should inform the owner of the telephone so that the call from the room monitor is answered.

Incoming calls on the handset set to room monitor

Incoming calls on the handset being used as the room monitor:

● Signaled without the ringer

● The call is only displayed.

● The keypad and display are not illuminated.
