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 or charging cradle.

Fit only the approved rechargeable battery pack! Never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery pack as this could damage your health and cause injury. Use the battery pack as directed in this user guide (page 24).

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 charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms. The charging cradle is not splashproof (page 22).

Do not use your 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.

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 more detailed information about disposal of your old appliance, please contact your city office, waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.

Note:

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

Gigaset SL55 – a handset with many extras

Your Gigaset SL55, which has a clearly laid out colour display (65K colours), offers you much more than just the possibility of storing up to 250 phone numbers and E-mail addresses (page 10):

u You can assign important numbers or

frequently used functions to the keys. The number is then dialled or the function started by simply pressing a key (page 15).

u You can designate important people as

VIPs so you can tell important calls from the ringtone (page 11).

u You can assign pictures to your con-

tacts. You can then tell who is calling you from the picture on your handset's display. This feature requires Calling Line Identification (CLI).

u You can save a voice pattern for impor-

tant directory entries – the handset dials when you speak the appropriate command (page 13).

u You can store appointments (page 11)

and anniversaries (page 12) on your handset and it will remind you of them in advance.

Have fun using your new handset!

First Steps

Setting up the handset for use

Fitting the battery pack

Caution:

Only use the rechargeable Siemens original battery pack (page 24)! This means that you should never use a conventional (nonrechargeable) battery pack, as this may cause significant damage to health and property. For example, the outer casing of the battery pack could be destroyed or the battery pack could explode. The phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the recommended type.

¤ With the pins to the front, insert the

battery pack into the cavity at an angle from the right.

¤ Then press it into the housing from

above until the bracket on the side of the battery back snaps securely into the housing.

¤ Then press the cover until 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.

Please note:

To remove the battery pack, you must first press the bracket on the side.

Closing the battery cover

¤ First, align the notches on the side of

the battery cover with the protrusions on the inside of the housing.

Opening the battery cover

¤ If fitted, remove the belt clip. ¤ Lift the device with the keypad in the

palm of your hand.

¤ Insert your index finger into the notch

on the lower edge.

¤ Carefully lift the cover upwards out of

the notches.

First Steps

Registering the handset

A Gigaset SL55 handset can be registered on up to four base stations.

You must initiate handset registration on the handset and on the base.

After it has registered, the handset returns to idle status. The internal number of the handset appears in the display, e.g. INT 1. If it does not, repeat the procedure.

On the base station

To find out how to register the handset on the base station, see the user guide for the base station.

On the handset

w ¢ Ð ¢ Handset ¢ Register H/Set s Select base station, e.g.

Base 1, and press

~ Enter the system PIN for the

base station and press (depending on the base station). The following flashes in the display, e.g. Base 1.

§OK§

Placing the handset in the charging cradle

¤ Plug the charging cradle mains adapter

into a mains power socket.

¤ Place the handset in the charging cra-

dle with the display facing forward.

To charge the battery pack, leave the handset in the charging cradle.

Notes:

– If the handset has switched itself off

because the battery pack is flat and is then placed in the charging cradle, it will switch itself on automatically.

– Only place the handset in the charging cra-

dle that is intended for it.

For questions and problems see page 23.

Initial charging and discharging of the battery pack

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

During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge status of the battery pack (page 1). The correct charge status can only be displayed if the battery pack is 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.

¤ Afterwards, remove the handset from

the charging cradle and do not put it back again until the battery pack is fully discharged.

Note:

After the first battery 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 battery pack from the handset and insert it again.

u The battery pack may warm up as it is

charging. This is not dangerous.

u After a time the charge capacity of the

battery pack will decrease for technical reasons.

¤ Set the date and the time, for example

to ensure the correct time of incoming calls is recorded.

Setting the date and time

The date and time must be set in order to, e.g. have the correct time for incoming calls and be able to use the alarm clock and calendar.

time, press the display key the input field.

Voice dialling

You can dial numbers from the directory by speaking the name. In order for your handset to "recognise" you, you must record a voice pattern for each name, i.e. loudly say the name into the handset and store it.

In addition, (depending on the base station), you can set your handset so that it announces the caller's name when an external call is received, instead of playing a ringtone.

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

Recording voice patterns

Record your voice pattern in quiet surroundings. Your mouth should be around 25 cm away from the handset. The voice pattern can be 1.5 seconds long.

Note:

If you use voice dialling predominantly with a handsfree set, then it is beneficial to record the voice pattern via the handsfree set.

Order of directory entries

Directory entries are generally sorted alphabetically by surname. Spaces and digits take first priority. If only the first name was entered in the directory, this is incorporated into the sort order instead of the surname.

The sort order is as follows:

1. Space

2. Digits (0–9)

3. Letters (alphabetical)

4. Other characters To get round the alphabetical order of the

entries, insert a space or a digit in front of the first letter of the surname. These entries will then move to the beginning of the directory. Names which you have preceded with an asterisk will move to the end of the directory.
