Don't miss a call - the Gigaset A690A with integrated digital answering machine Are you on the move and can't answer the phone yourself? Simply rely on your answering machine. Messages are saved with up to 20 minutes of recording time, and you decide when you want to listen to them conveniently via the handset, the base station or remotely. Even in the event of a power failure, your recordings are still saved. Record a personal announcement and set the recording length - this is how you configure the answering machine to suit your needs. Simply sounds good - a DECT phone with the best audio options You have the choice: For example, whether you would prefer to make calls directly via the handset or in hands-free mode - this gives you the freedom to do something else at the same time and other people can also listen and speak. Or which of the two hands-free profiles you prefer to use: Adjust the emphasis on higher or lower frequencies so that it is comfortable for you. Whatever you decide - you can rely on perfect voice quality! Clear, ergonomic, intuitive - making calls can be so convenient The first thing that catches your eye on the Gigaset A690 is the large, illuminated black and white graphic display. This has many advantages: The strong contrast of black text on a white background or the large number display in dial mode are deliberately designed to make operation even easier for you. In addition, an ergonomic keyboard with illuminated keys and intuitive handling ensures a high level of comfort when making calls. Stay in touch - with an integrated phone book and long talk time The Gigaset A690 makes communication easy: For example, with 14 hours of talk time, you can always be sure that you can talk to your contacts at any time. The device's phone book can hold up to 100 names and phone numbers, and the last 25 calls with phone number and time are automatically listed. In addition, with 180 hours of standby time, you can always be reached. Even more flexibility - with many compatible handsets Use your phone wherever you need it: The Gigaset A690 can be expanded with up to four handsets, which you can set up flexibly in your home. This means you always have a device to hand in the kitchen, bedroom or home office. Always environmentally friendly - and radiation-free thanks to ECO DECT The Gigaset A690 series, like all Gigaset cordless phones, is equipped with environmentally friendly ECO DECT technology. This means that the phones are radiation-free in standby mode, even when several handsets are in use, if the base and all registered handsets also support ECO DECT. During the call, the transmission power automatically adjusts to the distance between the base and the handset. The closer the distance to the base, the lower the radiation. For maximum DECT range, the ECO DECT mode can be deactivated at any time.
