4 Using Your Telephone
Overview
This chapter describes the three handset modes and provides procedures on how to handle calls and change handset settings.
Handset Modes
There are three modes in which the handset operates:
•AutoAnswer Mode. When the handset is in the charger unit, it is in AutoAnswer mode. You are automatically connected to an incoming call when you remove the handset from the charger unit and automatically disconnected from the call when you place the handset back in the charger unit.
•Standby Mode. When the handset is out of the charger unit and not in use, it is in Standby mode. You must press TALK to answer an incoming call and to hang up.
•Talk Mode. When the handset is out of the charger unit and in use, it is in Talk mode. The Talk icon appears in the handset display.
