the handset back in the telephone base or charger. Both

range, your originating handset shows UNABLE TO CALL TRY AGAIN.
Pressing OFF/CLEAR or MUTE/DELETE temporarily silences the intercom ringer.
If you have four handsets, when two handsets are on an intercom call, the other two
system handsets can be used on an outside call (see Join a call in process on page 26) or
a separate intercom call.
If you have five handsets and four of them are on intercom calls, you can use the other
handset for an outside call.

Press OFF/CLEAR. The intercom call ends and the handsets ring for the
incoming call.
