■Profiles
Profiles define how your device reacts when you receive a call or message, how your keypad sounds when you press a key, and more. Ringing options, keypad tones, and other settings for each of the available profiles can be left at their default setting, or customized to suit your needs. The following profiles are available: Normal, Silent, Meeting, Outdoor, and Pager.
Profiles are also available for enhancements such as headset and car kit. See "Enhancements," p. 83.

Timed profiles can be used to prevent missed calls.
