50 entries shared by both handsets

Phonebook

Shared phonebook directory

The phonebook directory is stored in the base, and is shared by both handsets. Changes made at either hand- set will be reflected in both.

Only one handset at a time can use the phonebook. If a second handset attempts to use the phonebook, the screen will display “Not available at this time.”

The phonebook can store up to 50 entries. Each entry can contain a number up to 32 digits, and a name up to 16 letters long. A convenient search feature can help you find and dial numbers quickly (see page 17).

Timeouts and error messages

If you pause for too long while making an entry the pro- cedure will time out and you will have to begin again.

If all memory locations are in use, the screen will display “Phonebook is full.” You will not be able to store a new number until you delete an existing one.
