Switching between phone lines

Your phone can have two service accounts, or phone lines, associated with it. Each phone line has its own phone number.

When you are using one line, you cannot receive calls from the other. It would be as if the phone were “off” for that number. Your voicemail, however, will still take messages. All contacts and settings are shared for both lines.

Note: You must first establish a second phone line with your service provider. Once established, a second phone number becomes available in the menu for selection:

1.Select Menu Settings Network Set Phone Line.

2.Select one of the two lines and press .
