Safety precautions

Emergency numbers cannot be dialled if the keypad lock

(¢ page 1) is activated!

Not all of the functions described in this user guide are

a

vailable in all countries.

Care

Wipe down the base station and handset with a

damp cloth (no solvents) or an antistatic cloth.

Never use a dry cloth. This can cause static.

Contact with liquid

If the handset should come into contact with liq-

uid:

◆ Switch the handset off and remove the bat-

teries immediately.

◆ Allow the liquid to drain from the handset.

◆ 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 (no

t in a microwave, oven etc.).

◆ Do not switch on the handset again until it is

completely dry.

When it has fully dried out, you will normally be

able

to use it again.

Read this user guide and the safety precautions carefully

before use. Explain their content and the potential haz-

ards associated with using the telephone to your chil-

dren.

Only use t

he mains adapter supplied.

Fit only the recom

mended, rechargeable

batteries (¢ page 12), i.e. never use any

other battery type or non-rechargeable batter-

ies as this could result in significant health risks

and per

sonal injury.

The operation of medical appliances may be

af

fected. Be aware of the technical conditions

in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's

sur

gery.

Do not hold the rear of the handset to your ear

w

hen it is ringing. Otherwise you risk serious

and permanent damage to your hearing.

The handset may cause an unpleasant hum-

ming noise in hearing aids.

Do not install the phone in a bathroom or

sho

wer room. The handset and base station

are not splashproof.

Do not use your phone in environments with a

po

tential explosion hazard, e.g. paint shops.

If you give your Gigaset to someone else, make

sur

e you also give them the user guide.

Please remove faulty base stations from use or

h

ave them repaired by our service, as they could

interfere with other wireless services.

Disposal

Batteries should not be disposed of in general

ho

usehold waste. Observe the local waste dis-

posal regulations, details of which can be

obt

ained from your local authority or the dealer

you purchased the product from.

All electrical and electronic equipment must be

disp

osed of separately from general household

waste using the sites designated by local

authorities.

If a product displays this symbol of a crossed-out

rubbi

sh bin, the product is subject to European

Directive 2002/96/EC.

The appropriate disposal and separate collec-

tion of used equipment serve to prevent poten-

tial harm to the environment and to health.

Th

ey are a precondition for the re-use and recy-

cling of used electrical and electronic equip-

ment.

For further information on disposing of your

used

equipment, please contact your local

authority, your refuse collection service or the

dealer you purchased the product from.

ECO DECT

You are helping to protect the environment with

your Gigaset AS180/AS185/AS280/AS285.

Reduced energy consumption

Your telephone has a power-saving adapter plug

and uses less power.

Reduced transmission power

The transmission power of your telephone is

reduced automatically:

The hand

set's transmission power is reduced

depending on the distance to the base station.

The transmission power on the base station is

reduced to virtually zero when only one handset

is registered and the handset is in the base sta-

tion.

You can reduce the transmission power of the

han

dset and base station even more by using

Eco Mode/Eco Mode+ (see Menu tree

¢ page 17):

◆ Eco Mode: 80% transmission power reduc-

tion in standby mode and during a call (the

ran

ge of the base station is reduced).

◆ Eco Mode+: 100% transmission power deac-

tivation in standby mode (top left display icon

½). Press and hold the talk key c to check

that the base station can be reached. You will

hear the ringing tone if the base station can

be reached.

First steps

Check the pack contents

◆ one Gigaset AS180/AS185/AS280/AS285 base station,

◆ one mains adapter,

◆ one Gigaset AS18H/AS28H handset,

◆ one phone cord,

◆ two batteries,

◆ one battery cover,

◆ one user guide.

If you have purchased a mo

del with multiple handsets, the package should contain two

batteries, a battery cover and a charging cradle with mains adapter for each additional

handset.

Setting up the base station and charging cradle (if included)

The base station and charging cradle are designed for use in enclosed dry rooms with a

temperature range of +5°C to +45°C.

¤ Set up the base station at a central location on a flat, non-slip surface in your house or

apartment.

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

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

ma

rks on the surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.

You can also mount the base station and charging cradle on the wall.

Please note:

◆ Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or other

electrical devices.

◆ Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.

Connecting the base station

¤ First connect the mains adapter 1.

¤ Then connect the telephone jack 2

and insert the cables into the cable

ducts.

Please note:

◆ The mains adapter must always be

connected, as the phone will not

operate without mains connection.

◆ Only use the mains adapter and

phone cord sup

plied. Pin connections

on telephone cables can vary.

Please note

Pa

y attention to the range of the base station.

This is up to 300 m in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 50 m inside buildings.

The range is reduced when Eco Mode (

¢ page 17) is activated.

Setting up the handset for use

The display is protected by a plastic film.

Please remove the protective film!

Inserting the batteries and closing the battery cover

¤ Connect the flat plug from the power supply 1.

¤ Plug the mains adapter into the plug socket 2.

If you need to disconnect the plug from the charging cradle,

press the release button 1 and disconnect the plug 2.

Warning

Use only the rechargeable batteries (

¢ page 12) recommended by Gigaset

Communications GmbH

*

. Never use conventional (non-rechargeable) batteries,

as this could result in significant health risks and damage to property. For example,

t

he 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.

* Gigaset Communications GmbH is a licensee of the Siemens trademark.

¤ Insert the batteries the right

way round.

The polarity is indicated in/on

the battery compartment.

¤ Slide the battery cover back into the

main casing until it clicks into place.

If you need to open the battery cover,

f

or instance to replace the batteries,

place your fingertip in the grooved area

on the top of the cover and slide down.

Placing the handset in the base station and registering

If you have purchased a model with multiple handsets, repeat the registration process

for each individual handset. Handsets are assigned the lowest available internal number

(1–4). If more than one handset is registered to the base station, the internal handset

number appears in the top left of the display, e.g. 2. If the internal numbers 1–4 are

already assigned to other devices, number 4 will be overwritten.

Initial charging and discharging of the batteries

The correct charge level can only be displayed if the batteries are first fully charged and

discharged.

Please note

◆ Each key press interrupts the automatic registration.

◆ If automatic registration does not work, the handset will have to be registered

manually (

¢ page 10).

◆ Only place the handset in the base station or charging cradle that is intended for

it.
