APPOINTMENT REMINDER/ALARM
CLOCK
This feature works like an alarm clock. Use it to remind yourself of an appoint-
ment later in the day (TODAY ONLY) or as a daily reminder every day (DAILY).
You can set up to three alarms. Each one can be either a TODAY ONLY or a
DAILY alarm.
When the alarm rings, you will hear three short rings repeated three times. Lift
the handset to answer the alarm. If you do not, the alarm will alert you two more
times at five minute intervals.
To set alarms:
• Press TRSF and then dial 112.
• Dial the alarm number 1, 2 or 3.
• Dial the time at which you want the alarm to sound. Enter the time as HHMM
(hours and minutes) using the 24 hour clock.
• Dial 0 (NOT SET), 1 (TODAY ONLY) or 2 (DAILY) to select the alarm type.
• Press TRSF to save.
• Repeat for each alarm if needed.
To cancel individual alarms:
