Gigaset C285 – more than
just a telephone
Your phone not only lets you store up to 140
phone numbers (page 16), it can do a whole
lot more:
u
Phone directly using the base station:
Your base station has the same keys as
your handset. So nearly all functions you
usually use on the handset are also avai-
lable directly on the base station.
u
Use two telephone lines with only one
telephone.
u
Make conference calls with two external
parties (page 29).
u
View missed calls on your phone
(page 17).
u
ECO DECT uses a power supply with low
power consumption. Your handset
reduces the transmission power depend-
ing on its distance from the base station
(close-up range).
