Using the Four-way Function Key

Your handset and base have a four-way function key that allows you to move the cursor or pointer on the display and access the most commonly used features at the touch of a button. By moving this key to the left, you open the phonebook. Move the key to the right to access Caller ID information. To use this four-way key, place your thumb over the key and move to the four positions to get the feel of how it moves and operates.
