Safety precautions

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 the back of the 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 53).

 

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical

 

conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.

 

Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when the

 

handsfree function is activated. This can cause severe, permanent hearing

 

damage.

 

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

 

Do not install the base station or charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms.

 

The base station and the charging cradle are not splash proof (page 51).

 

Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard,

 

e.g. auto paint shops.

ƒIf 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.

Please remove faulty base stations from use or have them repaired by our Service, as they could interfere with other wireless services.

Note:

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

Gigaset SL560 –

more than just a telephone

Your telephone has a clearly laid out colour display (65K colours) and not only makes it possible for you to send and receive SMS over the fixed network, but also to store up to 250 phone numbers and e-mail addresses (page 18) – it can do a whole lot more:

uYou can reduce the transmission power by activating the eco mode (page 15).

uYou can programme the keys of your phone with important numbers or frequently used functions. The number is then dialled or the function started by simply pressing a key (page 38).

uYou can designate important people as VIPs so you can tell important calls from the ringtone (page 19).

uAssign pictures to your callers. You will then know who is calling you by the picture on your handset display. Precondition: Calling Line Identification (CLIP, page 12).

uStore a voice pattern for important directory entries – the telephone will dial on voice command (page 21).

uYou can store appointments (page 44) and anniversaries (page 21) in your phone and it will remind you of them in advance.

Have fun using your new telephone!

Setting up the handset for use

The display is protected by a plastic film. Please remove the protective film!

Fitting the battery pack

Caution:

Use only the rechargeable Gigaset Communications GmbH * Original battery pack

(page 53). 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.

*Gigaset Communications GmbH is a trademark licensee of Siemens AG.

¤Insert the battery pack at an angle from the left introducing the lugs into the cavity first.

¤Then push the casing from the top, until the retaining clip on the side of the battery pack clicks securely into place in the casing.

Please note:

You must press the retaining clips down in order to remove the battery pack.

6

Gigaset SL560 / EN for Greece / A31008-M1710-T111-2-8U19 / starting.fm / 22.10.08

Closing the battery cover

¤You must first align the notches on the side of the battery pack with the lugs on the inside of the casing.

¤Then close the cover so that it clicks into place.

Attaching belt clip

There are notches for attaching the belt clip on the side of the handset at approximately 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.

First steps

Opening the battery cover

¤Remove the belt clip if the phone is mounted.

¤Pick the device up with the keypad facing the palm of your hand.

¤Insert your forefinger into the notches on the lower edge.

¤Gently lift the cover up out of the notches.

Placing the handset in the charging cradle

¤Plug the charging cradle mains adapter into a mains power socket.

¤Place the handset in the charger with the display facing forward.

The handset is already registered with the base station at the factory. INT 1 appears in the display. You do not have to re-register. If, nonetheless, you have to register your handset with the base station, please see page 35.

Note

You can change the name of the handset (page 37).

Leave the handset in the charging cradle to charge the battery pack.

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.

The handset must only be placed in the designated charging cradle.

For questions and problems see page 51.

Gigaset SL560 / EN for Greece / A31008-M1710-T111-2-8U19 / starting.fm / 22.10.08

First steps

Initial charging and discharging of the battery pack

If the handset is activated, the flashing battery icon ein 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 initial charge and discharge you may replace your handset in the charging cradle after every call.

Please remember:

uAlways repeat the charging and discharging procedure if you remove the battery pack from the handset and insert it again.

uThe battery pack may warm up as it is charging. This is not dangerous.

uAfter a time the charge capacity of the battery pack will decrease for technical reasons.

Setting the date and time

You should set the date and time, in order, e.g. to ensure that the correct time is recorded for incoming calls and in order to use the alarm clock and calendar.

¤If you have not yet set the date and time, press the display key §Time§ to open the input field.

To change the time, open the input field via:

w¢Ð ¢Date/Time

¤ Change multiple line input:

Date:

Enter day, month and year in 8-digit format.

Time:

Enter hours and minutes with 4 digits, e.g. QM15for 07:15 a.m.

§Save§ Press the display key.

Once the phone is registered and the time set, the idle display looks as shown here (example):
