Using Special Features
Using Your Phone During a Power Failure
Because your phone combines a corded handset with a cordless phone,
it can perform several of its functions during a power failure. The following
features will operate during a power failure (all other features are disabled):
Making and receiving calls with the base corded handset
Corded handset volume control
Call Waiting on a base corded handset call
Entering pauses when dialing from the base corded handset
While the power is out, the base uses a special ringer; you cannot
adjust the volume of this ringer.
Using Do Not Disturb
The Do Not Disturb or DND feature turns off the audio ringers of the
base & all handsets at the same time. It doesn't affect the visual ringers.
With the phone in standby, press and hold
DO NOT DISTURB
on the base.
The phone automatically turns on the answering system and shows
Do
Not Disturb
in the display on all stations.
To cancel, press
DO NOT DISTURB
.
If you turn the answering system off while DND is on, the phone
turns off DND along with the answering system.
Adjusting the Base Visual Ringer
The
VISUAL RINGER
switch is at the top of the
base (above the cradle); use this switch to
change the brightness of the base visual
ringer. (It doesn't affect the audio ringers.)
Slide the switch so that its center (marked
with the arrow in the picture) lines up with
the brightness you want to use:
HIGH
,
LOW
,
or
OFF
.
Using the Audio Boost
You can increase the earpiece volume for normal calls and intercom calls.
During a call, press
BOOST
to increase the volume of the audio. While
audio boost is on, appears in the display. Press
BOOST
again to turn off.
