Gigaset S45 – a handset
with many extras
Your Gigaset S45 not only lets you store up
to 150 telephone numbers (page 11) –
your Gigaset S45 can do much, much
more:
u You can designate important people as
VIPs so you can identify important calls
from the "tone" (page 12).
u You can store anniversary dates
(page 13) in your phone and it will
remind you of them in advance.
u Select frequently used phone numbers
at the press of a single key (page 12).
u Select 12 or 24-hour format for
displaying the time (page 7).

Never use conventional batteries (nonrechargeable) as this may cause significant
damage to health and property. For example,
the outer casing of the batteries could be
destroyed or the batteries could explode. The
phone could also malfunction or be damaged
as a result of using batteries that are not of the
recommended type. Use of battery packs not
authorized by Siemens may void the warranty
on this product.

Automatic registration Gigaset S45 to
Gigaset S450/S455
Important: The handset must not yet be
registered to any base station.
¤ Place the handset in the base with its
display facing outwards.
Registration takes around 1 minute. During this process, Regstr.Procedure appears
in the display and the name of the base
station flashes, for example Base 1. When
the handset has been registered, its
screen displays its internal number, for
example INT 2 for internal number 2. The
handset is assigned the lowest available
internal intercom number (1-6). If all
internal numbers 1-6 have been assigned,
number 6 is overwritten, provided the
handset with the internal number 6 is in
idle status.
Notes:
– Automatic registration is not possible when
the base station on which you wish to
register 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
manually.
Manual registration Gigaset S45
Registering your phone
Before you can use your Gigaset S45 you
must register it to a base station. It can be
registered to a maximum of four base stations. The actual registration procedure
will depend on the type of base station.

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 been registered, the handset
returns to idle status. The handset's internal number is shown in the display, for
example INT 1. If it is not, repeat the procedure.

Using a handset as a room monitor
Opening lists with the
message key
The message key will illuminate after each
missed call whether the caller left a voice
mail message or not. An advisory tone
sounds as soon as a new entry appears on
a list. The f key flashes (it will go off
when the key is pressed). In idle status,
the display shows an icon for the new
message.
If you press the f key, you access the
lists which contain new messages.
Using a handset as a room
monitor
If the room monitor is activated, a previously stored destination number is called
as soon as a set noise level is reached. You
can store an internal or external number
in your handset as the destination
number.
The room monitor call to an external
number stops after approx. 90 seconds.
The room monitor call to an internal
number (handset) stops after approx.
3 minutes (depending on the base station). While the room monitor is activated,
all keys are locked except the end call key.
The handset's speaker is muted.
When the room monitor is activated,
incoming calls to the handset are indicated without a ringtone and are only
shown on the screen. The display and keypad are not illuminated and advisory
tones are also turned off.
If you accept an incoming call, the room
monitor mode is suspended for the duration of the call, but the function remains
activated.
If you switch off the handset, the room
monitor mode is deactivated. You will
need to reactivate the function after
switching on the handset again.

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 handset's operating time is severely reduced. If
necessary, place the handset in the charging cradle. This ensures that the batteries
do not run down.
– Ideally the handset should be positioned
1 to 2 meters away from the sound being
monitored. The microphone must be
directed towards the monitored sound.
– The connection to which the room monitor
is diverted must not be blocked by an activated answer machine.

telephones operate at frequencies that may cause
interference to nearby TV’s and VCR’s; to minimize or
prevent such interference, the system base should not
be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR; and, if interference is experienced, moving the base farther away
from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate
the interference.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If this telephone
system does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the system off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the base station
and receiver.
3. Connect the base station into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV
technician for help.

Notes on the operating instructions
Entering special characters
You can call up the table of special characters using the * key. Select the required
character and insert it with §Insert§.
Order of directory entries
Directory entries are usually sorted in
alphabetical order. Spaces and digits take
first priority. The sort order is as follows:
1. Space
2. Digits (0–9)
3. Letters (alphabetical)
4. Other characters
To get around the alphabetical ordering of
the entries, insert a space or a digit in
front of the name. These entries will then
move to the beginning of the directory.
Names which you have preceded with an
asterisk will move to the end of the directory.
