cannot hear you, but you can hear them.

MUTE ON.
. Press the menu ok/mute button to cancel and return to your phone conversation.
Receiver Volume Control
When the handset is ON (in talk mode) you may adjust the receiver volume by pressing the
vol/CID ( 6 or 5) button. There are four volume levels to choose from. When the maximum
or minimum volume level is reached, the phone beeps twice. VOL 1 is minimum and VOL 4 is
maximum.
Intercom Operation
(applicable only with additional handsets)
The intercom feature allows you to have a conversation with another registered handset
without tying up the telephone line, allowing you to still receive incoming calls.
Making an Intercom Call
1. Make sure the handset is OFF (not in talk mode).
. Press the del/conf/intercom button on the handset.
3. Use the touch-tone pad to select the handset you want to page.
NOTE: To cancel page, press the del/conf/intercom button again or the end
button on the sending handset.
4. Wait for the person at the receiving handset to press the del/conf/intercom button.
NOTE: If the receiving handset does not answer within two minutes, the
intercom call is automatically canceled. The originating handset displays
NO ANSWER.
5. When finished, press the end button or del/conf/intercom button on either handset to
deactivate the intercom.
NOTE: The system is expandable up to 6 handsets (by purchase of optional
Model 28106 handset with recharge cradle). When 6 handsets are
registered, the system can handle 2 separate intercom operations at once,
for example, 1st handset intercoms with 2nd handset while 3rd handset
intercoms with 4th handset.
