First Steps
Registering the handset to the
base station
Before you can use the phone, you must
first register the handset to the base sta-
tion. The actual registration procedure will
depend on the type of base station.
A Gigaset S18H handset can be registered
on up to four base stations.
Automatic registration: Gigaset S18H
handset to Gigaset S185 base station
Important: The handset must not yet be
registered to any base station.
Registering the handset to the
Gigaset S185 base station occurs auto-
matically.

Place the handset in the base with its
display facing outwards.

The handset registers automatically.
Please do NOT remove your handset
from the base station during the regis-
tration procedure.

The handset is assigned the lowest availa-
ble internal number (1-6). If all internal
numbers 1-6 have been assigned, number
6 is overwritten, assuming that the hand-
set with the internal number 6 is in idle
status.
Note:
– Automatic registration is not possible when
the base station on which you wish to reg-
ister the handset is being used to make a
call.
– Each key press interrupts the automatic
registration.
– If automatic registration does not work,
you will have to register the handset manu-
ally.
– You can change the name of the handset
(page 27).
