For Answ. Setup, Global Setup and System Reset (Deregister HS) menu, make sure the line is not in use, and the handsets are within the range limits of the base.

About the Menu

Most of the handset settings are set from the menu. The menu has 5 main menus

(DirectLink Mode, Handset Setup, Answ. Setup, Global Setup, and System Reset) and submenus respectively.

Summary of the Main Menu and Submenu

DirectLink Mode

Select this menu to enter the handset into DirectLink mode. If you have 2 or more handsets, a pair of handsets work as transceivers. Use them at sporting events to stay in contact with family and friends, or at a shopping mall. To use this feature, you must set the two handsets to the DirectLink mode first (see page 24).

This menu only applies when you have 2 or more handsets.

Handset Setup

All settings must be set separately for each handset in the Handset Setup menu.

Submenu name	Description
Ringer Volume	Adjust the ringer volume (see page 24).
Ringer Tones	Adjusting the ringer tone (see page 25).
Distinct. Ring	Set the distinctive ring (see page 25). “Distinctive Ringer” allows you to
(Distinctive ring)	preset memory locations with a designated ring tone. When an incoming call
	is received and the Caller ID information matches the information in one of
	the memory locations, the distinctive ring that has been stored for that
	particular Caller will sound.
	If you have set multiple memory locations with distinctive rings, switching
	the setting to “Distinctive Off” will result in no distinctive ringing. All
	incoming calls will have a normal ring tone. Switching to “Distinctive On” will
	activate all programmed distinctive ring memory locations.
