Programming

RDuring the monitoring mode, battery consumption is faster than usual. We recommend leaving the monitored handset on the base unit or charger.

RThe monitored handset never rings during the monitoring mode. But if the monitored handset is on the base unit, the base unit ringer sounds. Turn off the base unit ringer volume to not sound the ringer (page 30). (KX-TG8561 series: page 3)
