Local Settings - Gigaset Maxwell 10 Administration Manual

Local settings

On this screen, you provide details about the location of your phone. These are used to determine the
international and local area dialling codes as well as country-specific tones (e.g., dialling tone or ring-
back tone).
Settings Telephony
Selecting the country
The time zone is determined automatically based
on the country you select.
¤
Select the Country in which you are using your
phone from the list.
Setting dialling codes
Depending on your country selection, the interna-
tional and (if relevant for that country) national dial-
ling codes are entered in the Prefix and Code Num-
ber fields automatically.
If your country is not offered in the list of countries
enter the dialling code yourself. Save the complete
area code (with international code) for the area in
which you are using the phone. In general, you must always dial the area code for VoIP calls – even
for local calls. To avoid having to dial the area code for local calls, your phone prefixes all VoIP calls in
the local area with the area code entered, i.e., all numbers that do not begin with 0 – even when dial-
ling numbers from the directory and other lists.
Exceptions: Numbers for which you have set dialling plans.
¤
Select Other Country from the end of the Country list.
¤
Enter the full prefix for the country in which you use your phone. Otherwise errors may occur with
phone connections or during data exchange (e.g., between a fixed line network and a mobile net-
work).
The prefix consists of the international prefix (International: Prefix and Code Number, e.g. 00 49
for Germany) and, if applicable, the prefix used for calls within the country (Local: Prefix and Code
Number, e.g. 0 for national long-distance calls in Germany).
Setting country-specific ringback and dialling tones
Tones, e.g. dialling tone, ringback tone, busy tone or call waiting tone, vary from one country or
region to another. You can choose from various tone groups for your phone.
The Tone scheme is automatically determined on the basis of the country selected above. You can
change the setting.
¤
Select the country or region whose tone scheme should be used for your phone.
