Volume control

Press CID/-VOLUMEto decrease the volume. Press DIR /VOLUME+ to increase the volume. When changing the volume level, the new setting is saved.

Call waiting

If you subscribe to call waiting service with your local telephone company, there will be a beep if there is an incoming call while you are already on a call. Press PHONE/FLASH to put your current call on hold and take the new call. Press PHONE/FLASH anytime to switch back and forth between calls. For more information on caller ID, see page 26.

Mute

Press MUTE to silence the microphone. When mute is on, MICROPHONE MUTED will show on the handset screen. You will be able to hear the caller, but the caller will not be able to hear you until you press MUTE again and resume speaking. When the mute function is turned off, MICROPHONE ON will show temporarily on the handset screen.

Temporary tone dialing

If dial pulse (rotary) is selected, you can switch to touch tone dialing during a call by pressing TONE*. This can be useful if it is necessary to send tone signals for access to answering systems or long-distance services.

After you hang up or press PHONE/FLASH (to receive a call waiting call), the telephone auto- matically returns to dial pulse (rotary) service.

Channel selection

During a call, if you hear clicks and pops, or if the speech sometimes fades, press CHAN/DELETE on the handset to scan for a clearer radio channel between cordless handset and base.
