Gigaset SL56 – a handset
with many extras
Your Gigaset SL56, which has a clearly laid
out colour display (65K colours), offers
you much more than just the possibility of
storing up to 250 phone numbers and
E-mail addresses (page 10):
u
You can assign important numbers or
frequently used functions to the keys.
The number is then dialled or the func-
tion started by simply pressing a key
(page 15).
u
You can designate important people as
VIPs so you can tell important calls from
the ringtone (page 11).
u
You can assign pictures to your con-
tacts. You can then tell who is calling
you from the picture on your handset's
display.
This feature requires Calling Line Iden-
tification (CLI).
u
You can save a voice pattern for impor-
tant directory entries – the handset
dials when you speak the appropriate
command (page 13).
u
You can store appointments (page 21)
and anniversaries (page 13) on your
handset and it will remind you of them
in advance.
Have fun using your new handset!

Fitting the battery pack
Caution:
Only use the rechargeable Siemens original
battery pack (page 26)! This means that you
should never use a conventional (non-
rechargeable) battery pack, as this may cause
significant damage to health and property. For
example, the outer casing of the battery pack
could be destroyed or the battery pack could
explode. The phone could also malfunction or
be damaged as a result of using batteries that
are not of the recommended type.
¤
With the pins to the front, insert the
battery pack into the cavity at an angle
from the right.
