Safety precautions
Gigaset S45 / SWZ PTT-en / Internet / start_guide_time.fm / 02.06.2006
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 phone.
Use only the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the charg-
ing cradle.
Only insert the recommended rechargeable batteries (page 19). i.e. Do not
use any other battery type or non-rechargeable batteries as this could result in
significant health risks and personal injury.
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical
conditions in your particular environment (e.g. doctor's surgery).
The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.
Do not install the charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms. Handset and
charging cradle are not splash proof (page 17).
Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard
(e.g. auto paint shops).
If you give your Aton to someone else, make sure you also give them the user
guide.

Gigaset S45 / SWZ PTT-en / Internet / start_guide_time.fm / 02.06.2006
Aton CL300 – a handset
with many extras
Your Aton CL300 not only lets you store up
to 150 telephone numbers (page 10) -
your Aton CL300 can do much, much
more:
uYou can designate important people as
VIPs so you can tell important calls from
the "tone" (page 10).
uYou can store anniversaries (page 11)
in your phone and it will remind you of
them in advance.
uSelect frequently used phone numbers
at the press of a single key (page 11).
Have fun using your new Aton CL300!
First Steps
Pack contents
uone Aton CL300 handset,
uone charging cradle (incl. mains
adapter),
utwo batteries,
uone battery cover,
uone belt clip,
uone user guide (German, French, Ital-
ian),
uone headset.
Setting up the handset for use
Connecting up the charging cradle and
mounting it on the wall (if required) is
described at the end of these instructions.
Inserting the batteries
¤Fit the batteries with the correct polar-
ity (see diagram).
The polarity is indicated in/on the battery
compartment.
Closing the battery cover
¤First align the battery cover with the
notches on the lugs on the inside of the
housing.
¤Then press the cover closed so that it
clicks into place.
Caution:
Only use the rechargeable batteries recom-
mended (page 19)! This means: Never use

ies could explode. The phone could also mal-
function or be damaged as a result of using
batteries that are not of the recommended

First Steps
Gigaset S45 / SWZ PTT-en / Internet / start_guide_time.fm / 02.06.2006
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 lugs on the belt clip
click into the notches.
Opening the battery cover
¤If fitted, remove the belt clip.
¤Insert a fingernail into the headset
socket cavity and pull the battery cover
upwards.
Registering your phone
Before you can use your Aton CL300 you
must register it to a base station. It can be
registered to a maximum of four base sta-
tions. The actual registration procedure
will depend on the type of base station.
Automatic registration Aton CL300
Important: The handset must not already
be registered to any base station.
Registering the handset to the Aton CL300
base station occurs automatically.
¤Place the handset in the base with its
display facing forward.
Registration can take up to 5 minutes.
During this process, Regstr.Procedure
appears in the display and the name of the
base station flashes e.g. Base 1. When the
handset has registered, its screen displays
its internal number, e.g. INT 2 for internal
number 2. The handset is assigned the
lowest available internal number (1-6). If
all internal numbers 1-6 have been
assigned, number 6 is overwritten, pro-
vided the handset with the internal
number 6 is in idle status.
Manual registration Aton CL300
If the handset does not switch on auto-
matically when the batteries are fitted,
you must first charge the batteries.
You must activate manual registration of
the handset at both the handset and the
base station.
After it has registered, the handset returns
to idle status. The handset's internal
number is shown in the display e.g. INT 1.
If not, repeat the procedure.
Notes:
– Automatic registration is not possible when
the base station on which you wish to reg-
ister the handset is being used to make a
call.
– Each key press interrupts the automatic
registration.
– If automatic registration does not work,
you will have to register the handset manu-
ally.

Caution!
–You should always check the operation
of the room monitor before use. For
example, test its sensitivity. Check the
connection if you are diverting the room
monitor to an outside number.
– When the function is switched on the hand-
set's operating time is severely reduced. If
necessary, place the handset in the charg-
ing cradle. This ensures that the batteries
do not run down.
– Ideally the handset should be positioned 1
to 2 metres away from the baby. The micro-
phone must be directed towards the baby.
– The connection to which the room monitor
is diverted must not be blocked by an acti-
vated answering machine.

If the handset has come into contact with
liquid:
1. Switch the handset off and remove
the batteries immediately.
2. Allow the liquid to drain from the hand-
set.
3. Pat all parts dry, then place the handset
with the battery compartment open
and the keypad facing down in a dry,
warm place for at least 72 hours (not

4. Do not switch on the handset again
until it is completely dry.
When it has fully dried out, you will nor-
mally be able to use it again.
Faults and Self-help with
Troubleshooting
Not every fault is due to a defective
phone. In certain circumstances, it can
come from a brief interruption in the
power supply to the base station (unplug/
plug in power supply) or if the batteries of
the handset are removed and inserted
again. The following instructions should
be of help for specific faults.
Important: problems or faults can only be
remedied if you bring the complete unit
(base station, handset, as well as connect-
ing cable) to the place of purchase.
