Safety precautions

Gigaset SL565 / GBR PTT / A31008-M1715-L111-2-7619 / security.fm / 11.7.07

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 tele-

phone.

Only use the mains adapter supplied, as indicated on the underside of the base

station or the back of the charging cradle.

Fit only the approved rechargeable battery pack! Never use a conventional

(non-rechargeable) battery pack as this could damage your health and cause

injury. Use the battery pack as directed in this user guide (page 58).

The operation of medical appliances may be affected. 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 the

handsfree function is activated. This can cause severe, permanent hearing

damage.

The handset may cause an unpleasant humming noise in hearing aids.

Do not install the base station or charging cradle in bathrooms or shower rooms.

The base station and the charging cradle are not splash proof (page 56).

Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosion hazard,

e.g. auto paint shops.

If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make sure you also give them the user

guide.

All electrical and electronic products should be disposed of separately from the

municipal waste stream via designated collection facilities appointed by the

government or the local authorities.

This crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on the product means the product is

covered by the European Directive 2002/96/EC.

The correct disposal and separate collection of your old appliance will help pre-

vent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health.

It is a precondition for reuse and recycling of used electrical and electronic

equipment.

For more detailed information about disposal of your old appliance, please con-

tact your local council refuse centre or the original supplier of the product.

Please remove faulty base stations from use or have them repaired by Siemens,

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.

Gigaset SL565 – more than just a telephone

Gigaset SL565 / GBR PTT / A31008-M1715-L111-2-7619 / starting.fm / 11.7.07

Gigaset SL565 –

more than just a telephone

Your telephone has a clearly laid out

colour display (65K colours) and not only

makes it possible for you to send and

receive SMS over the fixed network, but

also to store up to 250 phone numbers

and e-mail addresses (page 18) – it can do

a whole lot more:

uYou can reduce the transmission power

by activating the eco mode (page 16).

uYou can programme the keys of your

phone with important numbers or fre-

quently used functions. The number is

then dialled or the function started by

simply pressing a key (page 43).

uYou can designate important people as

VIPs so you can tell important calls by

the ringtone (page 19).

uAssign pictures to your callers. You will

then know who is calling you by the

picture on your handset display.

Precondition: Calling Line Identifica-

tion (CLIP, page 12).

uStore a voice pattern for important

directory entries – the telephone will

dial on voice command (page 21).

uYou can store appointments (page 49)

and anniversaries (page 21) in your

phone and it will remind you of them in

advance.

Have fun using your new telephone!

First steps

Gigaset SL565 / GBR PTT / A31008-M1715-L111-2-7619 / starting.fm / 11.7.07

Initial charging and discharging of the

battery pack

If the handset is activated, the flashing

battery icon e in the top right of the dis-

play indicates that the battery pack is

being charged.

During handset operation, the battery

icon indicates the charge status of the bat-

tery pack (page 1). The correct charge sta-

tus can only be displayed if the battery

pack is first fully charged and discharged.

¤To do this, leave the handset in the

charging cradle continuously for ten

hours. Your handset need not be

switched on for it to charge.

¤Afterwards, remove the handset from

the charging cradle and do not put it

back again until the battery pack is fully

discharged.

Please remember:

uAlways repeat the charging and dis-

charging procedure if you remove the

battery pack from the handset and

insert it again.

uThe battery pack may warm up as it is

charging. This is not dangerous.

uAfter a time the charge capacity of the

battery pack will decrease for technical

reasons.

Setting the date and time

You should set the date and time, in order,

e.g. to ensure that the correct time is

recorded for incoming calls and in order to

use the alarm clock and calendar.

¤If you have not yet set the date and

time, press the display key §Time§ to open

the input field.

To change the time, open the input field

via:

w ¢Ð ¢Date/Time

¤Change multiple line input:

Date:

Enter day, month and year in 8-digit

format.

Time:

Enter hours and minutes with 4 digits,

e.g. Q M 1 5 for 07:15

a.m.

§Save§ Press the display key.

Once the phone is registered and the time

set, the idle display looks as shown here

(example):

Your answering machine is set with a pre-

recorded announcement.

Your phone is now ready for use.

Please note:

After the initial charge and discharge you may

replace your handset in the charging cradle

after every call.

three ways: by ringing, by a display on the

screen and by the flashing handsfree

key d.

You can accept the call by:

¤Pressing the talk key c.

¤Pressing the handsfree key d.

¤Pressing the display key Ÿ to

divert the call to the answering

machine (page 36).

If the handset is in the charging cradle and

the Auto Answer function is activated

(page 45), the handset will take a call

automatically when you lift it off the

charging cradle.

If the ringtone is intrusive, press the dis-

play key §Silence§. You can take the call as

long as it is displayed on the screen.

Answering a call on a Bluetooth headset

Precondition: Bluetooth is activated; con-

nection has been established between

Bluetooth headset and the handset (see

page 51).

Press the talk key on the headset.

For further details on your headset, see

the user guide issued with it.

Calling Line Identification

When you receive a call, the caller's

number and/or name is displayed on the

screen if the following conditions are met:

uYour network provider supports CLIP,

CLI and CNIP.

– CLI (Calling Line Identification):

number of the caller is transmitted.

– CLIP (Calling Line Identification Pres-

entation): number of the caller is

indicated.

– CNIP (Calling Name Identification

Presentation): name of the caller is

indicated.

uYou have arranged CLIP or CNIP with

your network provider.

uThe caller has arranged CLI with the

network provider.

Please note:

Dialling using the directory, call-by-call list

(page 1, page 18) or call and last number

redial list (page 23) saves time re-entering

numbers and network provider prefixes ("call-

by-call numbers").

With voice dialling, you can dial numbers sim-

ply by saying the name (page 21).

code (preselection)

You can specify a call-by-call number

(preselection number), which is automat-

ically placed in front of numbers accord-

ing to two lists.

uThe list "with preselection" contains

the "rule" for dialling code numbers or

the first digits of dialling code numbers

with which you wish the preselection

number to be used.

uThe list "without preselection" con-

tains the "exception to the rule".

Example:

You have entered 08 for "with preselec-

tion". Now all numbers that start with

08 will be dialled with preselection.

However, if you require, for example,

that 081 is still dialled without prese-

lection, enter 081 for "without prese-

lection".

When dialling, after pressing the talk/

handsfree key the first digits of the dialled

number are compared with both lists:

uThe preselection number is not

inserted in front if the dialled number

–matches no entry in either list

– matches an entry in the list "with-

out preselection"

uThe preselection number is inserted in

front if the first digits of the dialled

number match with only one entry in

the list "with preselection".

SMS mailboxes

The General Mailbox is the default set-

ting. Anyone can access this mailbox and

it cannot be protected by a PIN. You can

also set up three personal mailboxes and

protect these with a PIN. Each mailbox is

identified by a name and a "Mailbox ID" (a

kind of extension number).

Please note:

uIf you operate a number of devices

(base stations) with SMS functionality

on a single phone line, then each SMS

mailbox ID may only occur once. In this

case you must also change the preset

ID of the general mailbox ("0").

uYou can only use personal mailboxes if

your service provider supports such a

function. You can tell that this is sup-

ported by the fact that a star (*) is

added to the number of a (preset) SMS

centre.

uIf you have forgotten your mailbox PIN,

you can reset it by restoring the base

station's factory settings. This will

delete all messages from all mail-

boxes.

Writing an SMS/name

(without predictive text)

uWhen you press a key and hold it, the

characters of that key appear in the

bottom display line and are high-

ately under the text panel (above the dis-

play keys) as soon as you press a key. The

letter you are most likely looking for is

reverse-highlighted and is at the begin-

a Press the end call key briefly

Order of directory entries

Directory entries are generally listed

alphabetically. Spaces and digits take first

priority. If only the first name was entered

in the directory, this will take the place of

the surname in the list.

The sort order is as follows:

1. Space

2. Digits (0–9)

3. Letters (alphabetical)

4. Other characters

To circumvent the alphabetical order of

the entries, insert a space or digit before

the first letter of the surname. These

entries will then move to the beginning of

the directory. Names which you have pre-

ceded with an asterisk will move to the

end of the directory.
