Using Mute

To turn off the phone’s microphone during a call so the other party on the phone cannot hear you (so you can talk privately with someone else in the room, for example), press FCN MNO6 . MUtE appears.

To turn the microphone on again, press FCN MNO6 again so MUtE disappears.

Hint: To help you remember which key to use, note that “M” (for mute) appears on the MNO6 key.

Note: Pressing END to end a call also turns the microphone back on.

MAKING EMERGENCY CALLS

Your phone is preprogrammed to let you dial your local emer- gency number (such as 911) at the press of a single button, even if the phone is locked (see “Locking Your Phone” on Page 36). Before you can use this feature, however, you must first program the emergency number you want to use in memory location 01 of your phone. See “Storing Speed Dial Numbers” on Page 31.

To place an emergency call once you have stored the emer- gency number, simply hold down 1 for about 1 second. The phone displays EMrgCY and dials the emergency num- ber.
