Answering a Call

When your phone receives a call, the ring tone sounds (unless you have disabled it through the SOUNDS menu),

the words Incoming Call flash in the display, the dis- play and keypad back light flash, and the indicator light on top of the phone rapidly flashes green. If you have Caller Number Identification (Caller ID) service from your service provider, the caller's phone number is shown in the display. If the caller's phone number is stored in the phonebook, the name stored with the phone number is also shown when the call is received.

￿￿Open the flip to answer the call. If the flip has been deactivated in the ANSWER OPT menu, answer the phone by opening the flip and pressing <(6. The words Incoming Call are replaced by the call timer display.

￿￿When you finish your conversation, press 12 or close the flip to end the call.

Temporarily Muting the Ring Tone

To temporarily mute the ring tone without answering the call, press either the upper or lower side key, or if the flip is open, press 12￿

Incoming Call is still shown in the display, and you can still answer the call by opening the flip or by press- ing <(6.

￿￿

Note! Do not use the 12 key to mute the ringer if the flip is closed and active. Opening the flip will answer the call. Pressing 12 will end the call.

Muting the Microphone During a Call

To mute the microphone during a call, press and hold the &/5 key.

Mic Muted appears in the display when the call is muted. Repeat this procedure to return to your call.

Note! If your flip has not been set to answer or end the call, then closing the flip mutes the call, and opening the flip disables the mute and resumes your call.

Increasing or Decreasing Ear Volume During a Call

To adjust the ear volume during a call:

Press the upper side key to increase the ear volume.

Press the lower side key to decrease the ear volume.

Call Waiting

If you have call waiting service from your service pro- vider, press <(6 to answer a call when you receive the call waiting signal. You can switch between the two calls by pressing <(6. Do not press 12 until you are ready to end both calls.
