Safety precautions

◆ 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.

Use only the power unit supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base station.

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical conditions within the particular environment (e. g. doctor's practice).

Do not install the base in bathrooms or shower rooms (see page 6 and page 33). The handset and base are not watertight.

Do not use the phone in environments subject to explosion hazard (e .g. auto paint shops).

If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the operating instructions.

Dispose of the batteries and phone in accordance with environmental regulations.

◆ Please note that only terminals that are operated inhouse (inside buil-

dings) may be connected to the analogue TAE connections.

◆ Not all of the functions described in these operating instructions are

available in all countries.

Getting started

Pack contents

◆ 1 base

◆ 1 power supply cord with power unit

◆ 1 ISDN connection cable

◆ 1 USB cable

◆ 1 wall holder

◆ Operating instructions

Notes on installation

◆ The installation location must have a 220/230V~ mains outlet and an ISDN tele-

phone connection.

◆ For optimum radio reception, you should install the base at a central point wherever

possible.

◆ The installation location should not be in the immediate vicinity of other equipment,

e. g. hi-fi, television, office or microwave equipment, in order to prevent mutual interference. Minimum distance (including to base power unit): 1.5 metres.

In case of picture and sound interference on satellite reception equipment, please contact your retailer to have your satellite reception system checked for a lack of screening.

◆ Avoid direct contact with sources of heat (e .g. radiators).

◆ Do not expose the base to direct sunlight.

◆ The base can also be wall mounted, using the wall holder included in the pack.

◆ If you are not using wall mounting, install the base on a level, non-slip surface. The

feet of the device do not normally leave any marks on the installation surface. However, in view of the variety of paints and polishes available, it cannot be ruled out, that contact may cause marks on the installation surface.

◆ The range between the base and the handsets is up to 300 m in the open air. Inside

buildings, ranges of up to 50 m can be achieved.

Getting started

Use as desktop unit

Your telephone can be used as a space-saving desktop unit. Before connecting the base, please read the notes on installation (page 3, page 4).

Mounting the base as a wall unit

Before mounting the base, please read the notes on installation (page 3, page 4).

1. Drill two holes (Ø 5 mm) 80 mm apart next to one another in the wall.

2. Use appropriate rawlplugs.

3. Screw in two round screws (Ø 4 mm).

4. Before attaching the wall holder and tightening the screws, place the connection cable through the holder from the back to the front. Ensure that the connection cable lies freely in the back recess.

5. Now plug the connection cable into the base (see Connecting the base).

6. Using slight vertical pressure from the top centre, press the base onto the retaining catches on the wall holder.

Getting started

Connecting the base

Front of unit

Schematic illustration

1. -S0 jack: Insert ISDN connection cable until connector clicks into place.

2. Insert ISDN connection cable into ISDN connection until connector clicks into place.

3. For NTBA with self-mounting, plug in the cable between the NTBA and the TAE (old telephone outlet) or Mini-Western connector until both connectors click into place.

4. jack: Plug in the power supply cord, until the connector clicks into place and plug into the mains outlet.

Use only the power unit supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base station.

Power failure: Your base and the handsets registered on it, as well as wire-based termi-

nals cannot operate in case of power failure. However, all the settings and stored information (messages, phonebook entries etc.) are retained indefinitely.

Getting started

Connecting auxiliary equipment

You can connect the following auxiliary equipment to your base:

◆ up to eight wireless devices (handsets see page 11, Gigaset data modules see

page 30, Gigaset Repeater see page 30)

◆ up to two analogue, wire-based devices (e. g. telephone, answering machine, fax

machine, entrance telephone – see page 25)

◆ a PC via USB port (USB V1.1 – see page 30)

Insert the USB cable into the base station, but do not connect it to the PC yet. Only attach the USB cable to the PC when prompted to do so by the PC program

talk&surf wizard.

Getting started

Setting and operating the base

Preparing the base for use and making settings

In order to be able to use your base, certain settings are required, e. g. the ISDN phone number (MSN). To do this, you need a handset or a PC. More details can be found in the operating instructions for your handset or your PC software.

If you have an S44, S1 or SL1 added-feature handset, a Getting started wizard is available to assist you in making the settings. More details can be found in the operating instructions for your added-feature handset.

Operating the base from a handset

Operating instructions are enclosed for the S44 handset. You will find operating instructions for other handsets on the enclosed CD-ROM or on the Internet at www.gigaset.com

Using "Assigning an MSN a ringer melody" as an example, you are shown below how to operate the base station with the following handsets:

◆ S44,

◆ S1 and SL1,

◆ C34,

◆ C1, C2 and C32.

You will find the meaning of the symbols used and information about operating your handset in the relevant operating instructions.

Operating the base from an S44 handset

The central operator control on the S44 handset is a control key p which has four direction arrows with the associated symbols. Pressing the various icons (up, down, right, or left) opens a different function. The side you have to press is shown by a black triangle in the operating instructions, e. g.: v key for right = open menu.

Registering handsets

You can register a maximum of eight wireless devices on your base (including Gigaset data modules (page 30) and Gigaset Repeater (page 30)). The internal numbers 11-18 are set aside for this purpose. Wire-based analogue devices do not have to be registered (page 25).

If the internal numbers Int.11 to Int.18 on your telephone have already been assigned, please de-register another handset you no longer require before registering a new one (see handset operating instructions).

If necessary, keep the handset operating instructions to hand with their description of the registration process.

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

1. On the base

Press the Register/Paging key on the base for about 3 seconds. This starts the registration. The base is ready for registering for 60 seconds.

Press the lit Register/Paging key

2. On the handset (within 30 sec.)

If the handset cancels base paging, e. g. because the registration time has been exceeded, repeat the process.
