Gigaset C285 –
more than just a telephone
Your phone not only lets you store up to
140 phone numbers (page 15), it can do a
whole lot more:
u
Phone directly using the base station:
Your base station has the same keys as
your handset. So nearly all functions
you usually use on the handset are also
available directly on the base station.
u
Use two telephone lines with only one
telephone.
u
Make conference calls with two exter-
nal parties (page 28).
u
View missed calls on your phone
(page 16).
u
ECO DECT uses a power supply with
low power consumption. Your handset
reduces the transmission power
depending on its distance from the
base station (close-up range).
Note:
The transmission power of the base station is
lowered to its minimum level when the hand-
set is placed in the base station and only one
handset is registered on the base station.

mation.
Caution:
Do not charge the handset in the charging cra-
dle or base station while the headset is con-
nected.
Have fun using your new phone!
