4.Press TALK or place the handset on the base to hang up.

To turn off the base’s ringer, set RINGER on the back of the base to OFF. You can still make or receive calls using this phone. Tele- phones on the same line (and the TAD’s handset if it is away from the base) still ring when there is an incoming call.

To turn on the base’s ringer, set RINGER to ON.

SETTING THE RINGER TONE/VOLUME

You can select one of four different ringer tone/volume settings while the phone is not in the talk mode. Press VOL 8 or 9 to in- crease or decrease the ringer level setting.

Note: The setting is not cyclic. If the ringer does not change when you press VOL 8 or 9, try pressing the opposite arrow key.

SETTING THE NUMBER OF RINGS

Set RING TIME on the side of the base to 3, 5, or T/S (Toll-Saver) to select how long the TAD waits to answer a call (3 rings, 5 rings, or toll-saver).

Note: If you plan to check messages by long distance, set RING TIME to T/S (see “Using the Toll-Saver” on Page 20).

SETTING THE DAY/TIME

You must set the day of the week and time so the TAD can record the correct day and time of each message.

Note: Enter each key press within about 2 minutes. Otherwise, the TAD exits the time setting process and you must begin again with Step 1.

1.Hold down CLOCK until the TAD beeps. The TAD announces the currently set day and displays the day’s number (0 for Sunday, 1 for Monday, and so on).

2.To change the day of the week, repeat- edly press SKIP to move forward or REPEAT to move backward to set the correct day, press CLOCK.

3.The TAD announces the hour. To change the hour, repeatedly press SKIP or REPEAT until the correct hour dis- plays, then press CLOCK.

4.The TAD announces the minutes. To change the minutes, repeatedly press SKIP or REPEAT until the correct minutes display, then press CLOCK.

5.The TAD announces “AM” or “PM,” and A or P appears. Press SKIP or REPEAT to change this setting. Press CLOCK again to set “AM” or “PM.” The TAD beeps and announces the day and time.

To check the day and time, press CLOCK. The TAD announces the currently set day and time.

Note: When power fails, the clock retains the current time. When the power is restored, the clock starts counting again from the time the power failed. You must reset the time.
