You can assign special ringer tones to anyone in your phonebook. When your phone gets a call, it looks up the Caller ID information in your phonebook.

1)Press [menu/select].

2) Select the HANDSET SETUP menu, and then the PERSONAL RING submenu.

3)Move the cursor to select ON or OFF.

4)Press [menu/select]. You will hear a confirmation tone.
