OUT OF RANGE

INDICATIONS

If you move the ET-908’s handset out of the base’s range, the handset will not operate properly. While it is out of range, the handset sounds different alert tones and flashes various indica- tors.

Note: To turn off the out of range indi- cations while the handset is out of range, you can press TONE , #, or any number key (0-9). (You can press OFF to turn them back on again.)

Out of Range with No Call

If you move the handset out of the base’s range when the handset is not in use, the handset’s CH (channel) in- dicator flashes and the handset beeps quietly at 30-second intervals. When you move the handset back within range of the base again, the CH indica- tor turns off and the handset stops beeping.

Out of Range with a Call in Progress

If you move the handset out of the base’s range while a call is in progress, the handset’s CH indicator lights steadily, the handset beeps quietly at 5-second intervals, and you and the other party cannot hear each other.

If you move the handset back within the base’s range within 30 seconds, the CH indicator turns off, the handset stops beeping, and you can resume your phone conversation.

If you keep the handset out of the base’s range for about 40 seconds or more, the call is disconnected (the TALK indicator turns off), the CH indi- cator begins to flash, and the handset begins to beep at 30-second intervals. When you move the handset back within range of the base again, the in- dicator turns off and the handset stops beeping.
