Safety precautions
Safety precautions
Read the safety precautions and the user guide before use.
The device cannot be used in the event of a power failure. In case of a power failure it
is also not possible to make emergency calls.
Emergency numbers cannot be dialled if the keypad/display lock is activated!
Use only rechargeable batteries that correspond to the specification (see list of per-
mitted batteries www.gigaset.com/service
). Never use a conventional (non-
rechargeable) battery or other battery types as this could result in significant health
risks and personal injury. Rechargeable batteries, which are noticeably damaged, must
be replaced.
The handset must not be operated if the battery cover is open.
Do not use the devices in environments with a potential explosion hazard
(e.g. paint shops).
The devices are not splashproof. For this reason do not install them in a damp environ-
ment such as bathrooms or shower rooms.
Use only the power adapter indicated on the device.
Whilst charging, the power socket must be easily accessible.
Remove faulty devices from use or have them repaired by our Service team, as these
could interfere with other wireless services.
Do not use the device if the display is cracked or broken. Broken glass or plastic can
cause injury to hands and face. Send the device to our Service department to be
repaired.
Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear when it is ringing or when speaker
mode is activated. Otherwise you risk serious and permanent damage to your hearing.
The phone may cause interference in analogue hearing aids (humming or whistling) or
cause them to overload. If you require assistance, please contact the hearing aid sup-
plier.
Using your telephone may affect nearby medical equipment. Be aware of the technical
conditions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery. If you use a medical
device (e.g. a pacemaker), please contact the device manufacturer. They will be able to
advise you regarding the susceptibility of the device to external sources of high fre-
quency energy (for the specifications of your Gigaset product see "Technical data").

Provider-specific functions (network services)
Provider-specific functions (network services)
Network services depend on the network (analogue fixed line network or IP telephony) and on
the network provider (service provider) and must be requested from that provider if required.
You will find a description of the features on your net
work provider's website or at one of their
store branches.
If you require assistance, please contact your network provider.
Network services fall into two distinct groups:
Network services that are activated when in idle status for the following call or all subsequent
calls (for example, "calling anonymously"). These are activated/deactivated via the
Select Services menu.
Network services that are activated during an external call, (for example, "consultation call",
"swapping between two callers"). These are made available during an external call either as
an option or by using a display key (e.g. Ext. Call).
Calling Line Identification
During a call, the caller's number is transferred (CLI = Calling Line Identification) and may be dis-
played on the recipient's display (CLIP = CLI presentatio
n). If the caller's number is withheld, it
will not be displayed to the recipient. The call is made anonymously (CLIR = CLI Restriction).
Caller display for incoming calls
Calling Line Identification
The caller's phone number is displayed. If the caller's number is saved in the directory, the name
is displayed.
No Calling Line Identification
Instead of name and number, the following is displayed:
External: No number has been transferred.
Withheld: Caller has withheld Calling Line Identification.
Unavailable: Caller has not authorised Calling Line Identification.
Requesting network services may incur additional costs. Please consult your network
provider.
To activate/deactivate the features, a code is sent to the telephone network.
¤ After a confirmation tone from the telephone network, press .
It is not possible to reprogram the network services.

When the alarm clock is activated, the icon and the wake-up time are displayed in idle

Alarm
An alarm is shown on the display and indicated by the selected ringtone melody. The alarm
sounds for 60 seconds. If no key is pressed, the alarm is repeated after 5 minutes. After the
second
repetition, the alarm call is deactivated for 24 hours.

Baby monitor
When the baby monitor is switched on, the stored (internal or external) destination number is
called as soon as a defined noise level is exceeded in the vicinity of the handset. The alarm to an
external number is cancelled after approximately 90 seconds.
You can answer the alarm using the Tw
o Way Talk function. This function is used to switch the
loudspeaker of the handset located in the baby's room on or off.
In baby monitor mode, incoming calls ar
e only indicated on the display (without ringtone). The
display backlight is reduced to 50%. Advisory tones are deactivated. All keys are locked, with the
exception of the display keys and the centre of the control key.
If you accept an incoming call, the baby monitor mo
de is suspended for the duration of the call,
but the function remains activated. The baby monitor mode is not deactivated by switching the
handset off and on again.
During a call, the alarm is only indicated by a short tone.
The handset should be positioned 1 to 2 metres away from the baby. The microphone
must point towards the baby.
Activating the function reduces the operating time of your handset. For that reason,
place the handset in the charging cradle if necessary.
The baby monitor is activated 20 seconds after switching on.
The answer machine for the destination number must be switched off.
After switching on:
¤ Test sensitivity.
¤ Test the connection, if the alarm is being forwarded to an external number.

ECO DECT
ECO DECT
The device range is set to maximum as default. This guarantees the best connection between
the handset and the base station. In idle status, the handset will not function (as it is not
transmitting). Only the base station will maintain contact with the handset via a low wireless
signal. During a call, the transmission power automatically adapts to the distance between the
base station and handset. The smaller the distance to the base, the lower the radiation.
To reduce the radiation further:
Reducing radiation by up to 80%
Deactivating radiation in idle status
¤ . . . use to select Settings OK ECO DECT OK Maximum
Range Change ( = off )
The range is also reduced with this setting.
It is not possible to use a repeater to increase the range.
¤ . . . use to select Settings OK ECO DECT OK No
Radiation Change ( = on)
To benefit from the advantages of the setting No Radiation, all registered handsets
must support this feature.
If the setting No Radiation is activated and a handset is registered to the base that
does not support this feature, No Radiation is automatically deactivated. As soon as
this handset is de-registered, No Radiation will automatically be re-activated.
The wireless connection will only be established for an incoming or outgoing call and
the connection will be delayed by about 2 seconds.
In order that a handset can establish a wireless connection with the base station more
quickly for an incoming call, it must "listen" to the base station more often, i.e. scan the
environment. This increases power consumption and reduces the standby and talk-
time of the handset.
When No Radiation is activated, there will be no range display/range alarm on the
handset. Contactability can be tested by attempting to establish a connection.
¤ Press and hold the Talk key . . . the dialling tone sounds.

gigaset-s850a
  • Can someone please tell me where I can enter a preselection (automatic network selection) code so that calls are routed though 18185- I used to be able to do this on my previous S795.

    Thanks Submitted on 7-3-2022 at 14:54
