Safety Precautions
Only use the power supply unit supplied, as indicated on the underside of
the device.
$
Fit only the recommended rechargeable batteries (page 73) of the same
type! Use no other types of batteries or non-rechargeable batteries, as they
could damage health and cause personal injury.
Ensure correct polarity when fitting rechargeable batteries, and use the bat-
tery type according to these instructions (you will see polarity symbols in the
‹
Œ
handset's battery compartments)
.
The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the techni-
cal conditions within the particular environment (e.g. doctor's practice).
The handset may cause an intrusive 'hum' in hearing aids.
Do not install the base in bathrooms or shower rooms (page 69). The handset
and base are not watertight.
Do not use the phone in environments subject to explosion hazard (e.g. auto
paint shops).
Ensure that your Gigaset is accompanied by these instructions when you give
it to others to use.
ƒ
i
Dispose of the batteries and phone in accordance with environmental regula-
tions.
Not all of the functions described in these instructions are available in all
countries.

Preparing to use your phone
Placing the handset into the base and charging the batteries
When you place the handset into the base, the handset will register automatically to
the base. Proceed step by step as follows:
1. Place the handset in the base with the display up.
2. Wait till the handset has registered automatically to the base (page 52): This opera-
tion takes around one minute. While registration is in progress the screen displays
Anmeldevorgang: and Basis 1 flashes. After registration, you will see a '1' in the
top left of the display – this means that the handset has been assigned the first in-
ternal number.
3. Now leave the handset in the base for the batteries to charge – the batteries are sup-
plied uncharged. Battery charging is indicated in the top right of the display by the
battery icon = flashing:

described starting on page 53. You can get help from a table containing basic questions
and answers (page 69).
To register additional handsets , refer to page 53.
i
For the initial charge we recommend a continuous, uninterrupted charg-
ing period of five hours, whatever charge status is indicated. After a while
the charge capacity of the batteries will decrease for technical reasons.
W
The battery charging status is correctly displayed only after uninterrupted charging/
discharging . You should therefore avoid removing the batteries unnecessarily and end-
ing the charging process prematurely.
N
Once initial charging is complete, you can replace your handset in the
base after each call. Charging is controlled electronically. This ensures
that the batteries are charged in a way that optimizes their life.
i
N
The batteries heat up during charging. This is normal and not danger-
ous.
Note
Your telephone is now ready for operation. With the Gigaset C 150, the answering
machine with pre-recorded announcement is also activated. To correctly record the time
of calls and messages (C 150) you should now set the date and time (page 14).

Preparing to use your phone
Activating/deactivating the handset
To activate the handset, press the 'end call' key a and hold. You will hear a confirma-
tion tone (rising tone sequence).
To deactivate the handset, press the 'end call' key again a in the idle status and hold
(confirmation tone).
The handset activates automatically when placed in the base or charger.
i
Activating/deactivating the keypad lock
You can 'lock' the keys on your handset, e.g. when carrying the unit in your pocket or
bag. This protects the keypad against inadvertent activation.
Press the hash key and hold (confirmation tone).
The Ø icon appears in the display
To deactivate the keypad lock, press the hash key R again and hold (confirmation
tone).

bers.

Text messages to PABX's
You can only receive a text message when the Calling Line Identification is for-
warded to the extension of the PABX (CLIP).
The CLIP of the number of the SMS centre is evaluated in the Gigaset (telephone).
If your phone is connected to a PABX, you may have to prefix the number of the SMS
centre with the access code (this depends on your PABX). If in doubt, you can test your
PABX by sending a text message to your own number and putting the access code
before the number of the SMS centre. If you do not receive the message, send another
one, this time without the access code.
When you send messages, your sender number may be sent without your extension
number. The recipient cannot reply to you directly in this case.
Text messages can only be sent and received through ISDN exchanges with the MSN
number assigned to your base.

Care
Wipe the base and the handset with a damp cloth (use no solvent) or an antistatic cloth.
Never use a dry cloth as this can cause static discharge!
!
Contact with liquid
If the handset should come into contact with liquid, on no account switch the device
on. Remove all batteries immediately.
Allow the liquid to drain out of the device, and then pat all parts of the device dry.
Keep the handset with the batteries removed in a warm, dry place for at least 72 hours.
In many cases, you will then be able to use it again.

N
N
N
N
The cursor is controlled with u v t s.
Characters (to the left of the cursor) are deleted with Û.
Characters are added to the left of the cursor (page 12).
To switch from upper case (first letter upper case, all other letters lower case) to
lower case, press P before you key in the letter. Pressing P again switches from
lower case letters to digits. Press again to return to upper case letters.
N
The first letter of the name of directory entries is automatically capitalized, followed
by lower case letters.

2. Digits (0–9)
3. Letters (alphabetical)
4. Other characters
To work around the alphabetical order of the entries in the directory, enter a space
before the name. This entry then goes to the first position (example: "sKarla"). You can
also number the entries with digits (e.g. "1Ute", "2Karla", "3Albert").
