Page 37

Using the Clarity Boost Feature

If you encounter interference while using your handset, you can manually improve the sound by setting the clarity booster to on. This works only when the handset is in use, so while you are on a call:

1. Press [menu/clear].

2. Move the cursor to CLARITY BOOST, and then press [select/ ] . BOOST ON and B appear in the display. Use the same procedure to turn off clarity booster. BOOST OFF appears.

Finding a Lost Handset

To locate a misplaced handset, press [find hs] on the base (or [mute/find hs] on the dual-keypad base) when the phone is in standby. All registered handsets will beep for 60 seconds, and PAGING appears on the handset display. To cancel paging, press [find hs] ([mute/find hs]) again or any key on the found handset.

Using Hold, Conference and Transfer

Placing a Call on Hold

To place a caller on hold, press [xfer/intercom] on the handset, [hold] on the base, or [hold/int'com/xfer] on the dual-keypad base. If you leave a caller on hold for more than ten seconds, the display will read, LINE ON HOLD. To return to the party on hold, press [ / flash] or [ ] on a handset or [speaker] on the base.

Note: You can only place a caller on hold for 5 minutes. Once 5 minutes have passed, the caller will be disconnected and the phone will return to standby.

While a call is on hold, Caller ID and Call Waiting can not be received.
