Ringer volume

You can set a base ring volume level (1-6), or turn the ringer off (0). When the base is idle, use the ^ or V on the VOLUME button to hear an example of each volume level and save the one you prefer.

NOTE: The ringer volume level also determines the level of ring- ing for intercom calls (see page 16). If the base ringer volume level is set to off (0), the base will be silenced for all calls.
