Safety precautions

Warning:

Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use. Explain their contents and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to your children.

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 (page 63)! That means never use a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery pack, as this could result in significant health risks and personal injury.

Battery packs should not be disposed of in general household waste. Observe the local waste disposal regulations, which you can find out about by contacting your local authority or the dealer you purchased the product from.

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. Otherwise you risk serious and permanent damage to your hearing.

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 charging cradle are not splashproof (page 61).

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 al so give them the user guide.

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

All electrical and electronic equipment must be disposed of separately from general household waste using the sites designated by local authorities.

If a product displays this symbol of a crossed-out rubbish bin, the product is subject to European Directive 2002/96/EC.

The appropriate disposal and separate collection of used equipment serve to prevent potential harm to the environment and to health. They are a precondition for the re-use and recycling of used electrical and electronic equipment.

For further information on disposing of your used equipment, please contact your local authority, your refuse collection service or the dealer you purchased the product from.

Please note:

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

Safety precautions

Gigaset SL370/SL375 – More than just a telephone

Your phone, which has a clearly laid out colour display (65K colours) doesn't just offer you the option of sending and receiving SMS messages via the fixed network and of saving up to 250 phone numbers and e-mail addresses (page 20) – it can do much more than that:

u You can reduce the transmission power

by activating the eco mode (page 12).

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 48).

u You can easily make calls using network

services (page 19).

u You can designate important people as

VIPs so you can tell important calls from the ringer tone (page 21).

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. Precondition: Calling Line Identification (CLIP, page 17).

u You can store appointments (page 54)

and anniversaries (page 23) in your phone and it will remind you of them in advance.

u You can use Bluetooth™ for wireless

communication with other devices (e.g. headsets) that also use this technology (see page 55).

Enjoy using your new telephone!

Fitting the battery pack

Warning:

Only use the rechargeable Siemens original battery pack (page 63)!

The phone could also malfunction or be damaged as a result of using batteries that are not of the recommended type.

1 Underside of the base station

(detailed view) 2 Mains adapter 240 V 3 Phone jack with phone cord

Please note:

u The mains adapter must always be

connected, as the phone will not oper-

ate without mains connection.

u Only use the mains adapter and phone

cord supplied.

¤ With the pins to the front, insert the

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

¤ Then press it into the housing from

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

First steps

Please note: To remove the battery pack, you must first

press the bracket on the side.

Closing the battery cover

¤ Align the battery cover parallel to the

casing and press down 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.

Opening the battery cover

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

the palm of your hand.

¤ Place the thumb of your other hand on

the loudspeaker (a) and use the index finger of the same hand to press the groove at the top of the handset (b).

¤ Lift the cover.

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.

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, see page 43.

Please note:

You can change the name of the handset (page 45).

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

Please note:

– 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 61.

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 first battery charge and discharge, you may place 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.

ECO DECT

ECO DECT reduces power consumption by using a power supply with low power consumption and also reduces the transmission power of the base station. You can set this manually with your handset. It can be used by several handsets at the same time.

Your handset also reduces the transmission power depending on the distance to the base station.

– If external handsets (GAP) and handsets

from earlier Gigaset versions are used, your handset will not automatically reduce the transmission power to the base station.

Using the directory and lists

Order of directory/call-by-call list 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.

s / C Open directory or call-by-call

list.

You have the following options:

u Use s to scroll through the entries

name or of the first name if only the

first name has been entered), or scroll
