Using Special Features
Using Your Phone During a Power Failure
Because it includes a corded handset, your phone 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.
Changing the volume on the corded handset.
Using Call Waiting on a base corded handset call.
Entering pauses when dialing from the base corded handset.
Only line 1 is available during a power failure.
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 ringers of the
base and all handsets at the same time.
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
again.
If you turn the answering system off while DND is on, the phone
turns off DND along with the answering system.
Using the Alarm Feature
You can set 3 different alarms on each cordless handset so your
phone can remind you of important events. When an alarm is set, the
alarm icon ( ) appears on the top of the screen.
