The
Global Setup

The settings on this menu apply to all the handsets and the base. Before
changing these settings, make sure the phone is in standby and all
handsets are within range of the base. (Only one station at a time can
change these settings.)

back into sync with your voice mail service (see page 21).
Register Handset
(Base Only)
This menu lets you register additional handsets to this base or re-register
a handset that you had to reset for some reason (see "Resetting and
Registering Handsets" on page 29). If you want to use other accessory
handsets, visit our website or contact our Customer Care Line for
information on compatible handsets.
Entering Text on Your Phone
When you want to enter text into your phone (for example, a name in the
phonebook), use the twelve-key dial pad to enter the letters printed on the
number keys. Here's how it works:
The phone enters the letters in the order they appear on the key. For
example, if you press the number key
2
once, the phone enters the
letter
A
. Press
2
twice for
B
, and three times for
C
.
If you press the key again after the last letter, the phone starts the same
letter sequence with small letters. If you press
2
four times in a row, the
phone enters
a
(small letter). Press
2
five times for
b
, and six times for
c
.
If you see the icon
[Aa]
in the display, the phone enters capital letters
first (
A B C
), then small letters (
a b c
), then the number on the key (
2
).
The icon
[aA]
means the phone starts at the small letters, so it enters
small letters first, then the number on the key, then capital letters.
The phone automatically uses a capital letter for the first letter and any
letter directly after a space; all other times, it uses small letters.
If two letters in a row use the same number key, enter the first letter,
then use
CALLER ID/RIGHT
to move the cursor to the next position to
enter the second letter.
