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 58).
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 56).
Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard,
e.g. auto paint shops.

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 local council refuse centre or the original supplier of the product.
Please remove faulty base stations from use or have them repaired by Siemens,
as they could interfere with other wireless services.

Gigaset SL565 – more than just a telephone
Gigaset SL565 –
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:
u You can reduce the transmission power
by activating the eco mode (page 16).
u You 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 43).
u You can designate important people as
VIPs so you can tell important calls by
the ringtone (page 19).
u Assign 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).
u Store a voice pattern for important
directory entries – the telephone will
dial on voice command (page 21).
u You can store appointments (page 49)
and anniversaries (page 21) in your
phone and it will remind you of them in
advance.
Have fun using your new telephone!

Fitting the battery pack
Caution:
Use only the rechargeable Siemens Original
battery pack (page 58). Never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) 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.
¤ Insert the battery pack at an angle from
the right 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.

You can change the name of the handset
(page 42).
Leave the handset in the charging cradle
to charge the battery pack.
Please note:
– If the handset has switched itself off

First steps
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.
Please note:
After the initial 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
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.
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

announces the name of a caller for an
external call instead of ringing, see
page 45.

30 directory entries. Entries with voice
patterns are marked with ´.
You can also perform voice dialling functions via an activated Bluetooth headset.
