the display. To answer a transferred call, pick up the handset and press [TALK/flash] or [ ]. (If Auto Talk is on, the phone automatically answers when you pick it up from the cradle; if the handset is already off the cradle, you can also press any key on the twelve-key dial pad.)

4-5. Adjusting the Speaker Volume

You can change the speaker volume on the base, the handset earpiece, or the handset speakerphone.

On the base

You can choose from ten volume levels ( - ) for the base speaker. Press [vol/select/] to make the volume louder or [vol/select/] to make it softer .

Notes:

You can't change the speaker volume when you're using the base setup menu. Exit the menu, and then change the volume.

If you hear three quick error beeps, it means the speaker is already at the lowest ( ) or highest ( ) volume level.

On the handset

When you are on a normal call, press [/ ] to make the earpiece louder or [] to make it softer. The handset display shows the current volume level for the earpiece.

When you are using the speakerphone, use [/ ] or [] to change the speaker volume. The handset display shows the current volume level for the handset speakerphone.

There are four volume levels: LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, and MAXIMUM. Notes:

The handset earpiece and the handset speakerphone have separate volume settings.

If you hear three quick error beeps, it means the earpiece or speaker is already at the lowest (LOW) or highest (MAXIMUM) volume level.

4-6. Finding a Lost Handset

To locate a lost handset, press [find hs] on the base. All registered handsets will beep for sixty seconds. To cancel paging, press [find hs] again or press any key on the found handset.

4-7. Muting the Ringer

When the phone is ringing, you can mute the ringer on the base or the handset. Muting stops the ringer for the current call only: the ringer will sound with the next incoming call.

On the handset

You can only mute the handset ringer if the handset is already off the cradle when the handset starts ringing. Press [END] to mute the incoming ring.

On the base

Press [ ] to mute both the ringer and the answering system speaker. To turn the ringer back on for this call, press the [ringer].

Note: When you turn the ringer back on, the answering system speaker is still off; to turn the answering system speaker back on, press [vol/select/] or [vol/select/].

4-8. Using an Optional Headset

• To install a headset, remove the headset jack cover and insert the headset plug into the headset jack.

• When you connect a headset, the earpiece and speakerphone are automatically muted. If you want to re-activate the earpiece or speakerphone, remove the headset plug.

• You will still make and receive calls as usual: just use your headset to talk to the caller once the call connects.

You can purchase headsets from our website at www.uniden.com or by calling our Parts Department (See the back cover page).

5) Using Caller ID and Call Waiting

If you subscribe to Caller ID from your phone company, your phone will show you the caller's phone number and name (if available) whenever a call comes in. If you subscribe to both Call Waiting and Caller ID, the phone also shows you the name and the number of any call that comes in while you're on the line.

The date and time received Caller's name

Caller's Phone Number

5/11 12:30PM Jane Smith 214-555-1234

Note: If you answer a call before the Caller ID record is received (for example, before the second ring), the Caller ID record will not appear.

The phone stores the Caller ID information for up to thirty incoming calls - even unanswered calls. If the phone receives more Caller ID records than it can store, the oldest record in the list is automatically deleted. For information on storing Caller ID records in the phonebook, see section 6-6.

5-1. Reviewing the Caller ID Record List

You can review the Caller ID list when the handset is in standby or during a call.

1)

Press [cid/menu]. The summary screen displays the total number of

Caller ID

 

CID records along with the number of new CID records (that is, calls

 

New :01

 

that you haven't reviewed yet).

2)

Use [

] to scroll through the records from the latest to the earliest,

Total:17

 

or use [

/ ] to scroll through the records from the earliest to the

 

 

latest.

 

 

3)

Press [cid/menu] to exit the Caller ID list.

 

For new Caller ID records, the phone keeps a count of the number of calls

12/30 11:59PM 01

received from the same caller (instead of saving the information multiple

times). The Caller ID record shows the time and date of the most recent call

Jane Smith

from that number, and the number of calls appears next to the received

214-555-1234

time. The phone only maintains this count for new or “unviewed” records:

 

once you review that record, the number is cleared.
