GETTING STARTED

Step 3: Setting up the telephone

SETTING UP LCD CONTRAST, LANGUAGE, AREA CODE, TIME & DATE, AND TONE OR PULSE MODE

You may need to set up the LCD contrast, language, area code, time and date, and tone or pulse mode for your telephone when you install the batteries for the first time or when you move to an area that has a different area code. This is necessary because the phone must distinguish local or long distance calls to properly dial calls from the Caller ID list.

NOTE: During setup, if you do not press the DELETE button within 20 seconds, the display will get back to normal display mode.

Press and hold the DELETE button, then press

 

the DOWN button, the LCD CONTRAST (5-

 

grey level) will show on the display. Use the

 

UP or DOWN button to select the suitable grey-

 

level and press the DELETE button to accept.

display, the default language “E” (English) will

 

flash. Press UP or DOWN to choose your
