Ignore The Incoming Call

With this feature, you can transfer all the incoming calls to the answering system. When the phone rings, press the END/cancel button on the handset. The answering system will answer the call for you.

Call Timer

After you press the TALK or SPEAKER button on the handset, the screen displays the built-in call timer and counts the length of time of the call in minutes and seconds.

Auto Standby

If you place the handset in the cradle while the handset is off the hook (during a call), the call is automatically disconnected.

Ringer Volume (Shortcut)

There are two ways to set the ringer volume. One is the traditional way as described in the Programming Functions; Handset Setup; Ringer Volume menus. The other one is this short cut to ringer menu.

1.Make sure the phone is OFF (not in TALK mode).

2.Press the #pause button to display SET RINGER LEVEL 5.

3.Use the CALLER ID-VOLUME(6 or 5) button to scroll to your selection. LEVEL 5 is the default setting.

4.Press #pause button again to save and display the new selection for a few seconds.

Flash/Call Waiting

If you subscribe to the combined Call Waiting Caller ID service from your local telephone company, you will receive Caller ID information (if available) on Call Waiting calls. During a phone call, you will hear a beep to indicate another call is waiting on the line and the screen displays Caller ID information for the waiting call.

To connect to the waiting call, press the TALK or SPEAKER button on the handset, and your original call is put on hold.

To switch between the two calls, press the TALK or SPEAKER button.
