Gigaset S790/S795 – more than just a telephone

Gigaset S790/S795 – more than just a telephone

Your telephone sets new standards for the way you communicate at home. The

configuration and user interface of the cordless phone are excellent, providing

you with first-class voice quality in speaker mode, while the USB port offers you

enormous flexibility.

The large TFT display, user-friendly keypad and clearly laid out menu are very

simple to use.

Your phone can do a whole lot more:

uYou can synchronise the directories on your telephone, mobile phone and

PC via the USB port using the Gigaset QuickSync software (¢page 64).

uYou can save appointments (¢page 43) and anniversaries, e.g., birthdays

(¢page 33), in your phone and it will remind you of them in advance.

uYou can designate important people as VIPs to identify important calls from

the ringtone (¢page 31).

uYou can assign a picture to entries in the directory – in the future the picture

will appear every time you receive a call from this number (¢page 31).

uIf you do not want to take calls where the caller has withheld their number,

just set your handset to only ring if Calling Line Identification (CID) has not

been blocked (¢page 54).

uIf you do not wish to be disturbed, you can simply set up a time control so

that your phone will only ring when it is convenient (¢page 53). VIP calls

are still connected during this time.

uYou can assign important numbers to the number keys on your phone. The

number is then dialed by simply pressing a key (¢page 51).

uYou can set the display to large font to increase readability in particularly

important situations (e.g. the directory and lists) (¢page 52).

uYou can adapt the menu display to suit your individual requirements so that

only the most important functions (standard mode) or all functions (expert

mode) display (¢page 26).

Safety precautions

Warning

Be sure to read this user guide and the safety precautions before using your telephone.

Explain their content and the potential hazards associated with using the telephone to

your children.

Use only the power adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base.

Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification pro-

vided on page 63, as this could otherwise result in significant health risks and

personal injury. Do not charge the handset in charging unit or base while the

headset is connected.

Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. 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

speaker mode is activated. You risk serious and permanent damage to your

hearing.

Your Gigaset is compatible with the majority of digital hearing aids on the mar-

ket. However, perfect function with all hearing aids cannot be guaranteed.

The handset may cause an unpleasant humming or whistling noise in hearing

aids or cause them to overload. For assistance, please contact the hearing aid

supplier.

Do not install the base or charger in bathrooms or shower rooms. The base and

charger are not splashproof (¢page 62).

Do not use your phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard

(e.g., paint shops).

If you give your phone to a third party, make sure you also give them the user

guide.

Remove faulty bases from use or have them repaired by our Service department,

as they could interfere with other wireless services.

Please note

Not all of the functions described in this user guide are available in all countries.

Version 4, 16.09.2005

Setting up the base and charger (if included)

The base and charger are designed for use in dry rooms in a temperature range

of +41°F to +113°F.

¤Set up the base at a central point in the building on a level, non-slip surface

or mount the base (Gigaset S790 only) or charger on the wall (¢page 60).

The phone's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to

the multitude of different varnishes and polishes used on today's furnishings,

the occurrence of marks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.

Please note:

uNever expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight

or other electrical devices.

uProtect your telephone from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.

Connecting the base

¤First connect the

power adapter 1.

¤Then connect the

telephone jack 2

and insert the

cables into the

with liquid:

1. Switch the handset off and remove

the battery 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

in a microwave, oven etc.).

4. Do not switch on the handset again

until it is completely dry.

When it has fully dried out, you will usu-

ally be able to use it again.

No time is specified for a message in the call

list.

Date and time have not been set.

¥Set the date and time (¢page 15).

The answering machine announces "PIN is

incorrect" during remote operation.

up of three sub-pixels (red, green,

blue), it is possible that pixel colours

may vary.

This is completely normal and does not

indicate an error.

ence in a residential installation. Some cordless

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 expe-

rienced, moving the base farther away from

the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate

the interference.

However, there is no guarantee that interfer-

ence 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
