notes:

Changing the handset ringer volume does not affect the base ringer volume. For more information on the base ringer volume, see Telephone base ringer volume on page 15.

The handset ringer volume also determines the ringer volume of intercom calls and paging tones.

If the handset ringer volume is off, that handset ringer is silenced for all incoming calls. However, that handset still plays the paging tone when responding to the handset locator feature (see Handset locator on page 23).

While the telephone is ringing, press temporarily on that handset only (see

off/cancel or mute/delete to silence the ringer Temporary ringer silencing on page 16).
