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.
Only use the recommended, rechargeable batteries (page 31), i.e. never use
a conventional (non-rechargeable) battery or other battery types as this could
result in significant health risks and personal injury.
Batteries should not be disposed of in general household waste. Observe the
local waste disposal regulations, details of which can be obtained from 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 dam-
age 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 30).
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 also give them the user
guide.
Please remove faulty base stations from use or have them repaired by our
Service, as they could interfere with other wireless services.

Version 4, 16.09.2005
Placing the handset in the base station
and registering
¤Place the handset in the base station
with its display facing upwards.
The handset registers automatically.
Registration can take up to 5 minutes.
While this is happening, Regstr.Procedure
appears in the display and the name of the
base station flashes. The handset is
assigned the lowest available internal
number (1–4).
This will appear in the display when regis-
tration is complete, e.g. INT 1. This means
that the number 1 has been assigned.
If the internal numbers 1–4 are already
assigned to other devices, the number 4 is
overwritten.
To charge the batteries, leave the handset
in the base station.
For questions and problems see page 30.
Headset socket
You can connect various headset types
(with 2.5 mm jack connector).
A compatibility list of tested headsets can
be found on the Internet at
www.plantronics.com/productfinder.
Initial charging and discharging of
batteries
If the handset is activated, the flashing
battery icon ein the top right of the dis-
play indicates that the batteries are being
charged.
During handset operation, the battery
icon indicates the charge status of the bat-
teries (page 1). The correct charge level
can only be displayed if the batteries are
first fully charged and discharged.
¤To do this, leave the handset in the
base station or charging cradle with-
out interruption for five hours.
¤Afterwards, remove the handset from
the base station and do not put it back
again until the batteries are fully dis-
charged.
Please note:
uAlways repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and reinsert
them.
uThe batteries may warm up during
charging. This is not dangerous.
uAfter a while the charge capacity of the
batteries will decrease for technical rea-
sons.
Please note:
– Automatic registration is only possible
while no calls are being made from the
base station.
– Each key press interrupts the automatic
registration.
– If automatic registration does not work the
handset will have to be registered manually
(page 20).
– You can change the name of the handset
(page 22).
Please note:
– The handset will automatically switch on if
it is placed in the base station.
– Only place the handset in the base station
or charging cradle that is intended for it.
Please note:
After the first battery charge and discharge
you may replace your handset in its base sta-
tion after every call.

mum.
Your handset also reduces the transmis-
sion power depending on the distance to
the base station.

caller's number is transmitted.
– CLIP (Calling Line Identification Pres-
entation): the caller's number is dis-
played.
uYou have arranged CLIP with your net-
work provider.
uThe caller has arranged CLI with the

preselection (preselection)
You can specify a preselection number
which is automatically placed in front of
numbers when you dial them.
uThe "with preselection" list contains
the "rule" for dialling code numbers or
the first digits of dialling code numbers
with which you wish the preselection
number to be used.
uThe "without preselection" list con-
tains the "exception to the rule".
Example:
You have entered 08 for "with preselec-
tion". Now all numbers that start with
08 will be dialled with preselection.
If, for example, you want 081 to still be
dialled without preselection, enter 081
for "without preselection".
When dialling, the first digits of the
selected numbers are compared with both
lists after the talk/handsfree key is
pressed:
uThe preselection number is not pre-
fixed if the dialled number
–does not match any entries in the
two lists
– matches an entry in the "without
preselection" list
uThe preselection number is prefixed if
the first digits of the dialled number
match with only one entry in the list
"with preselection".
