The handset goes into the standby mode after you finish using the handset (making/answering a call, viewing the Caller List or directory list etc.). The display is blank, but the handset can receive calls.

The battery life is conserved in this mode.

Base Unit

The base unit goes into the standby mode after you finish using the base unit (making/answering a call, using the intercom, using the answering system etc.). Programming and storing phone numbers are possible only when the base unit is in the standby mode.
