Security Features — to prevent unauthorized phone use, you can lock the phone (so it cannot be used at all) or set it so calls can be placed only to numbers stored in memory lo- cations 01–10.

Special Messaging Service Features — the phone is pre- programmed to work with special (subscription-only) messag- ing services offered by many cellular carriers, including calling line ID and voice mail notification.

Ample Talk and Standby Time — the supplied battery (fully charged) provides about 2 hours of talk time or 30 hours of standby time.

Battery and Cellular Signal Strength Meters easy-to- read graduated bar graphs let you quickly check the battery power remaining or the current cellular signal strength.

Automatic Answer — lets you set the phone to answer auto- matically after two rings (if you are using optional handsfree equipment, for example).

Two Phone Number Capability — lets you use this one phone with two different cellular services, with a different phone number from each.

Handsfree Feature — the phone is preprogrammed to work with most optional handsfree equipment.

We recommend you record your phone’s Electronic Serial Number (ESN) here. The number is on the back of the hand- set under the battery.
