The display is protected by a plastic film.
Please remove the protective film!
Fitting the battery pack
◆
Place the battery leads in the cable guides so
that the battery cover cannot catch on the leads
and damage them when it is closed.
◆
Use only the rechargeable battery pack rec-
ommended by Gigaset Communications GmbH *
(page 9), i.e. never use a conventional (non-
rechargeable) battery pack as this may cause sig-
nificant 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.
◆
Only use the battery charger supplied.
◆
Only place the handset in the charging cradle
that is intended for it.

Step 3: Registering the handset to
the base station and charging the
battery pack
Precondition: The handset is not already regis-
tered to a base station.
Registering the handset to the Gigaset C360/C365
base station occurs automatically. Place the hand-
set in the charging cradle of the base station with
its display facing forward. You will hear a confir-
mation tone. Leave the handset in the base station
until it is registered.
Automatic registration can take up to 5 minutes.
While this is happening, Registering flashes in the
screen. The handset is assigned the lowest unas-
signed internal number (1–4). If several handsets
are registered to the base station, the internal
number is shown in the top left of the display after
registration, e.g. 2. If the internal numbers 1 to 4
have already been assigned (four handsets have
already been registered), handset number four is
de-registered and overwritten.
Charging the battery pack
To charge the battery pack, leave the handset
in the base station for approx. 13 hours for the
Gigaset C360 or approx. 6 hours for the Gigaset
A165/A265. The battery pack is now fully charged.
The charge status of the battery pack is correctly
displayed only after uninterrupted charging/dis-
charging. Therefore you should not interrupt the
charging procedure.
Charging is electronically controlled to prevent the
battery pack from overcharging. The battery pack
heats up during charging. This is normal and not
dangerous. After a time its charge capacity will
decrease for technical reasons.
You must set the date and time to ensure that the
times of calls are logged correctly (see Menu tree,
page 10).
Once the phone is registered and the time set, the
idle display looks as shown on page 1.
