Important informations
Notes on setting up the base station

Place of installation

There must be a 220V/230V power socket in the vicinity. The base station should not be located in the immediate vicinity of other electronic devices, such as a hifi system, a microwave oven or office equipment, otherwise there is a risk of mutual interference. Place the base station on a level, non-slip surface. The device feet do not normally leave any unsightly marks. However, in view of the many different varnishes and polishes currently used for furniture, the possibility of telephone components leaving marks on the mounting surface cannot be entirely ruled out. Radio communication between the base station and the handsets is based on the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) standard. The Gigaset 2015 plus complies fully with the relevant European guidelines. Should you nevertheless experience sound or picture distortion with your satellite signal receiving equipment, please get in touch with your dealer to have it tested for shielding faults. Depending on the ambient conditions, the maximum radio range between the base station and the handsets is approx. 300 metres out of doors and approx. 50 metres indoors. If the range warning tone has been activated at the handset ( page 31), you will receive an audible signal when you go out of range during a call.

Temperature/service environment
The base station is designed for operation in protected rooms with a temperature range from +5C to +45C. Do not set up the base station in a bathroom, laundry room or directly adjacent to sources of heat, such as radiators. Direct sunlight must also be avoided.
Important informations Notes on operating the handset
Notes for people wearing hearing aids If you wear a hearing aid, please note before using the telephone that radio signals can interfere with hearing aids and, if sufficiently loud, can cause an unpleasant humming noise. Use of batteries Please note the following for use of batteries:
Use batteries of the type supplied (AA-type nickelcadmium batteries, also referred to as miniature batteries). The following batteries may also be used: Panasonic P-60 AA/1P Philips R6 NC-P , , UCAR RC6, Eveready RC6, DAIMON ACCU 1000, Sanyo N-3U, Varta Rechargeable Battery Plus Ni-Cd 1,2V, No. 5006
Use of nickel-metal-hydrid (NiMH) Batteries: in order to achieve longer call times, you can also operate your Gigaset 2000S/2000C handset with nickel-metal-hydrid batteries. The following batteries have been approved for use: Sanyo H R-3U (1300 mAh), GP GP120 AAHC, Emmerich CE R 6, Energizer EMH-1100 AAC, Varta VH 1101 AA When you have inserted the NiMH batteries you can inform your handset of the higher capacity: the first time that you charge the handset fully, it indicates that the battery will soon be empty ( i ) too early. Discharge the batteries by continuing to use the handset until the battery symbol j appears and you hear the battery warning tone (note: max. 10 minutes operating time left). In this way the handset detects that the batteries have a longer service life and will indicate the charging status correctly in the future. When the battery compartment is opened, the indicator is reset to the capacity of the batteries supplied. Only use NiMH batteries with the Gigaset 2000S and 2000C handsets. These batteries cannot be operated in Gigaset 1000S and 1000C handsets!
The use of other types of batteries or of non-rechargeable batteries can cause malfunctions and can even damage the equipment. The manufacturer does not accept responsibility under these circumstances. Never use ordinary batteries.

Wait until the dialup line is free Log on the handset at the base station ( page 57) Check the plug at the base station and the 220V/230V socket; reconnect if necessary. Adjust the volume of the tone ringing at the base station ( page 27) or the handset ( page 29) Set the ringing assignment ( page 59) Reset the dialling method ( page 16)
The plug of the power connecting cable is not inserted correctly No tone ringing from the base station or handset The volume of the tone ringing is set too low Assignment of ringing set wrongly No connection after dialling the number; dial tone can still be heard. 72 Wrong dialling method
Symptom Operation in conjunction with a PBX: no connection or wrong connection after dialling from a memory System code input rejected.
Cause Trunk code/main trunk code not entered
Corrective measure Enter the trunk code/main trunk code ( page 18)
The system code that was input does not correspond to the new code.
If you have forgotten the system code that you modified, please contact the manufacturer (telephone number under Contact Partner). If you have forgotten the PIN that you modified, please contact the manufacturer (telephone number under Contact Partner). Enter a system code (not 0000).

PIN entered rejected.

The PIN that you entered does not correspond to the new PIN. System code not entered.
Direct inward dialling or remote retrieval not possible.
Your Gigaset telephone will not operate if the mains adapter is not plugged in or in the event of a power failure!

Special accessories

Gigaset 1000TAE

The cordless socket for operating devices connected by a cord at base stations of the Gigaset 1000/2000 family. You can use the cordless socket to connect corded terminals such as telephones, fax machines, modems (up to 9600 bit/s), answering machines and decoders (top-set box) for the digital television to each Gigaset base station in the 1000/2000 family instead of other handsets. The advantage of this is cordless operation of your corded terminals with the functionality of your Gigaset 2015 plus including the automatic fax recognition when operating a fax machine at Gigaset 1000TAE.
