Mute
To have a private, off-line conversation, use the MUTE feature. The party on
the telephone line cannot hear you, but you can hear them.
1. Press the mute/prog button. The handset display shows MUTE ON.
2. Press the mute/prog 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 cid/vol ( or ) 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.
Do Not Disturb (DND)
DND allows you to turn off the ringer on the handsets and call screening on
the answerer at once even though the handsets have been set to High or
Low. To do this,
1. In the standby mode, press the DO NOT DISTURB button on the base. The
DND backlit indicator will turn on and DO NOT DISTURB shows in each
handset display.
2. To cancel, press DO NOT DISTURB again.
NOTE: You can also enable DND even when there is incoming call ringing
in.
NOTE: You can also enable DND to stop the call screening after the call is
taken by the answerer.
Intercom Operation
The intercom feature allows you to have a conversation with another
registered handset without tying up the telephone line. And since the
telephone line is not in use, you may still receive incoming calls.
Making an Intercom Call
1. Make sure the phone is OFF (not in talk mode).
2. Press the page/int button on the handset.
3. Use the touch-tone pad to select the handset you want to page.
