Setting Up the Handset
Remove the protective plastic film
from display.
Inserting the batteries
• Insert the batteries, as shown above.
• Place cover and push gently upward until it clicks
into place (the unit is shipped with the battery
cover off).
• To open, press the grooved area on the cover and
slide back.
Placing the Handset into the Base Station
and Charging the Batteries
Before using your handset, place it in the base sta-
tion with the display facing upward. After about one
minute, the handset's internal number is shown in
upper left hand corner of display (for example, “1”).
Note:
Your Gigaset is now ready for operation. Please set
date and the time (see page 7), so that the time of
incoming calls can be noted correctly.
• Use only “AA” rechargeable NiCd or NiMH
batteries. Do not use Alkaline, Lithium or
non-rechargeable batteries.
• Never use non-Siemens charging units as
these could damage the batteries and
phone.
For information on how to register additional
handsets (bought separately), see page 25.

pleted, replace your handset into the base
station after each call. Charging is con-
trolled electronically. This ensures opti-
mum charging and prolongs battery life.
• The batteries heat up during charging. This
is normal and not dangerous.
• The battery charging status is correctly dis-
played only after uninterrupted charging/
discharging. You should therefore avoid
opening the battery compartment unnec-
essarily.
