•Caller ID displays briefly and then clears.

3)Select the GLOBAL SETUP menu, and then the SET LINE MODE submenu.

4)IF INSTRUCTED BY CUSTOMER SERVICE PRESS [SELECT] appears. Press [Menu/Select].

Traveling Out of Range

When the handset is in standby, the handset will display OUT OF RANGE.

During a call, if you move your handset too far from your base, noise may increase. If you pass the range limit of the base, the handset will beep, display OUT OF RANGE, and then go to standby. The base will maintain the connection for thirty seconds after the handset goes out of range. If you move the handset back within range of the base within thirty seconds, press [/Flash] or [] to pick up the call again.

Note: If it is set to automatically select the available base, the handset will begin searching for another base thirty seconds after going out of range. (see Selecting the base on page 14).
