Safety precautions
Not all of the functions described in these operating
instructions are available in all countries.
Setting up the telephone for use
Step 1: Connecting the base
◆First connect the mains adapter and then the
phone jack as shown below and place the cords in
the cord recesses.
1 Underside of base station (detailed view)
2 Mains adapter 230 V
3 Phone jack with phone cord
Please remember:
◆Keep the mains adapter plugged in at all times
for operation as the phone does not work without
a mains connection.
◆If you buy a replacement phone cord from a
store ensure, that the phone jack is connected cor-
rectly.
Step 2: Setting up the handset
Inserting the batteries
◆Fit the batteries with the correct polarity (see
diagram).
WRead this user guide and the safety precautions
carefully before use. Explain their contents to your
children, and the potential hazards associated
with using the telephone.
Only use the mains unit supplied.
Fit only the recommended, rechargeable batter-
ies (page 9), i.e. never use any other battery
type or any non-rechargeable batteries as they
could damage your health and cause injury.
The operation of medical appliances may be
affected. Be aware of the technical conditions in
your particular environment (e. g. doctor's
practice).
The handset may cause an intrusive 'hum' in
hearing aids. Do not hold the handset against
your ear while it is ringing (incoming call).
Do not install the phone in a bathroom or
shower room. The handset and base station are
not splashproof (page 9).
Do not use your 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 instruc-
tions.
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.

Caution:
Use only the rechargeable batteries recom-
mended by Siemens (page 9). I.e. on no
account may conventional (non-rechargeable)
batteries or other battery types be used, other-
wise serious damage to health and property
cannot be ruled out, e.g. the outer casing of
the batteries could be destroyed or the batter-
ies could explode. The phone could also mal-
function or be damaged as a result of using
batteries that are not of the recommended
type.

fore you should not interrupt the charging process.

batteries from overcharging. The batteries heat up
during charging. This is normal and not dangerous.
After a time the charge capacity will decrease for
technical reasons.
The charge status of the batteries appears at the
top right of the display:
The handset is already registered with the base sta-
tion. You must set the date and time to ensure that
the times of calls are logged correctly (page 7).
Your telephone is now ready to use.

Press and hold the end call key a.
If you place a deactivated handset in the base sta-
tion/charging cradle, it will automatically activate.

the keypad against inadvertent activation.
To activate: press and hold the hash key R.
The display shows the icon Ø.
