Cordless Phone Basics, Making a Call, Receiving a Call

CORDLESS PHONE BASICS

MAKING A CALL

The only two things you need to know to make a call are:

•Press the PHONE button before you dial.

•Press PHONE button or place the handset in the base to hang up. Otherwise, it works just like any other phone.

IMPORTANT: Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should have at least one phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in your home goes out.

PHONE -IN-USE LIGHT

You know the phone is on when you see the Phone-in-Use light on the handset come on.

To answer a call you must press the PHONE button on the handset before you can talk.
