Basics
Receiving Calls
Ringer/Vibrating Alert Suppress
If an incoming call catches you by surprise, you can silence the
alert using the upper or lower volume key. Your phone’s ringer or
vibrating alert will remain OFF while the current call lasts. The
caller will still hear ringing and you can still answer the call by
pressing æ.
Note: This feature works the same with a headset. To answer
the call with a headset after you have turned the alert OFF, press
either volume key again or the Smart Button.
Unanswered Call Indicator
Even with the latest wireless technology, sometimes you are
unavailable to answer calls. If your phone is ON, it keeps a count
of unanswered calls. For example, if you miss two calls, your
display will show: 2 Calls Unanswered.

If you subscribe to Call Waiting through your Service Provider,
you may hear a tone while on a call, indicating that you are
receiving a second call.
