Safety precautions
Gigaset SL560 / EN for Greece / A31008-M1710-T111-2-8U19 / security.fm / 22.10.08
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 tele-
phone.
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.
If 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 pre-
vent 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 con-
tact 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
Gigaset SL560 / EN for Greece / A31008-M1710-T111-2-8U19 / starting.fm / 22.10.08
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 fre-
quently 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!

First steps
Gigaset SL560 / EN for Greece / A31008-M1710-T111-2-8U19 / starting.fm / 22.10.08
Initial charging and discharging of the
battery pack
If the handset is activated, the flashing
battery icon ein the top right of the dis-
play indicates that the battery pack is
being charged.
During handset operation, the battery
icon indicates the charge status of the bat-
tery pack (page 1). The correct charge sta-
tus 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 remember:
uAlways repeat the charging and dis-
charging 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. Q M 1 5 for 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):
Your phone is now ready for use.
Note:
