Making calls

You can make calls on a Gigaset handset connected to your base.

Making an external call

To make an external call, you need to define one of the phone connections as a send con-

nection. You have the following options:

u Assign a connection to the handset as a send connection permanently (£ page 81).

If necessary, you can use a "fallback" connection via a display key (

£ page 76).

u Select a send connection on the handset each time you make a call.

Permanently assigned send connection

Prerequisite:

A specific connection is assigned to the handset as a send connection (£ page 81).

Enter the number and press the talk key.

The number is dialled.

Or:

Press and hold. A list of your phone's connections will be displayed.

Select a line.

default name is used.

Please note

You can make up to four external calls at the same time via your base, depending on

the quality of your DSL connection.

Please note

If you use VoIP to make a call to the fixed line, you may also have to dial the area code

for local calls (depending on the provider). You can avoid having to dial your own area

code by entering it in the configuration and activating the Predial area code for local

calls via VoIP option (see Web configurator,

£ page 103).
