Gigaset C355 –
More than just a telephone
Your phone not only lets you send and
receive text messages over the fixed net-
work and store up to 100 telephone num-
bers (page 14) – it can do much, much
more:
u
You can programme the keys of your
phone with important numbers so you
can dial at the touch of a button
u
You can designate important people as
VIPs so you can tell important calls by
the ring tone (page 15).
u
You can store birthdays (page 16) on
your phone and it will remind you of
them in advance.
Have fun using your new phone!
