Base settings
After activating or deactivating the
repeater, switch your handset off
and on again (¢ page 26).
Please note
u Eco Mode / Eco Mode+
(¢ page 54) and repeater sup-
port cancel each other out i.e.,
if you use a repeater, you can-
not use Eco Mode or Eco
Mode+.

mission setting is deactivated
when repeater mode is acti-
vated.
Protecting against
unauthorised access
Protect the system settings of the
base with a system PIN known only
to yourself. You will need to enter
the system PIN when, for example,
registering/de-registering a handset
to/from the base.
Changing the system PIN
You can change the base's 4-digit
default system PIN ("0000") to a 4-
digit PIN known only to yourself.
Gigaset E500A: Setting a system PIN
enables remote operation of the
answering machine (¢ page 52).

Resetting the system PIN
If you have forgotten your system
PIN, you can reset the base to the
original code 0000:
Disconnect the power cable from
the base. Hold down the registra-
tion/paging key on the base while
reconnecting the power cable to the
base. Hold down the key for at least
5 seconds.
The base has now been reset and
the system PIN set to 0000.
Please note
All handsets are de-registered
and must be re-registered. All set-
tings are reset to the default set-
tings.

Changing the call volume

You can set the handsfree volume to
five different levels (1–5; e.g.,
volume 3 = ˆ).
