Basic base operation
Making and answering calls
To answer an incoming call, press SPEAKER, or
any dial pad key (0-9, * or #). To make a call, press
SPEAKER, then dial a number. Press SPEAKER
again to hang up.
Last number redial
When the base is idle, press REDIAL /PAUSE will
activate the speakerphone and dial out the most
recently called number (up to 32 digits).
-OR-
When the speakerphone is already on during an
external call, pressing REDIAL /PAUSE to immediately
dial out the most recently called number (up to 32
digits).
NOTES:
1. After pressing speaker on the base, if you press and hold REDIAL 
/PAUSE while dialing, it will insert a 3-second dialing pause.
2. If you dial a number after pressing FLASH, that dialed number will
not be saved for redial, so when you press SPEAKER and then
REDIAL /PAUSE, you can only dial out the second latest called number.
Handset locator
If you misplace the handset(s), press HANDSET 
LOCATOR /INTERCOM at the base. This starts the pag-
ing tone at the handset(s) for 60 seconds to help
you locate it. To stop the paging tone, press PHONE 
FLASH, SPEAKER, or any dial pad key (0-9, *, or #)
on the misplaced handset(s) (the handset(s) not on
the cradle), or press HANDSET LOCATOR/INTERCOM at
the base.
NOTES:
1. The handset ringer volume also determines the level of the paging
tone. If the handset ringer volume level is set to off (0), that handset
will be silenced for all calls and paging (see page 18).
2. During a page, if you press OFF CLEAR on the misplaced handset(s)
(the handset(s) not on the cradle), the ringer of that handset will be
silenced, but the page will not be cancelled.
