Telefono analogico/DECT Gigaset COMFORT 500A duo

The Gigaset COMFORT 500A duo is an analog/DECT cordless telephone set with two handsets, a 5.59 cm (2.2") high-contrast colour display and a phonebook for up to 200 contacts. It combines ergonomic design, good acoustics, headset connection and integrated speakerphone. The COMFORT 500A model adds an integrated answering machine with up to 30 minutes of recording time. The set supports Caller ID and SMS and is available in silver and black finish.

Advantages

The handset offers intuitive navigation on a large TFT colour display (44 x 35 mm) with jumbo mode for extra-large digits, illuminated keypad and clear, tactile keys. Call protection features include a blacklist for up to 150 numbers, blocking of anonymous callers, time-controlled silent periods and a VIP list for preferred callers. The address book stores up to 200 contacts with three numbers each, programmable speed-dial keys, automatic birthday reminder and individual VIP melodies. ECO DECT technology reduces transmission power in use and disables radiation in standby when supported by base and handsets. The COMFORT 500A duo is expandable up to six handsets and compatible with Gigaset HX handsets.

How to use

Place the base station near your router or a phone socket and charge both handsets fully before first use. Register the handsets to the base according to the quick-start guide. Use the menu on the colour display for phonebook entry, call protection settings (blacklist, anonymous call block, time control) and VIP assignments. Configure the answering machine settings—record a personal greeting and set maximum recording length—then access messages from any handset or the base. For IP DECT use, connect the base to your LAN and enter the provider details as required; for analogue operation simply connect to the line.

Recommendations

For best battery life and minimal radiation, enable ECO DECT if supported by your base and handsets; place the base centrally in the home to ensure optimal range and reduce transmission power during calls.
