Night mode
Night mode allows you to select a block of time during which the handset will not ring for outside calls. This feature is useful for times when you do not want to be disturbed, for example, while sleeping. Night mode can be set independently for the handset and the base unit (page 35).
Using the handset phonebook’s category feature (page 22), you can also select categories of callers whose calls will override night mode and ring the handset (Caller ID subscribers only).
Set the date and time beforehand (page 16).

56)in addition to turning the night mode feature on.
