1-4. Connect the Telephone Cord

If you receive high-speed internet service

through your telephone line (referred to as

DSL), you should install a DSL lter between

the telephone base and the wall jack. Standard

telephones often can’t operate correctly without

a DSL lter.

Test the connection

11 Make a quick test call, and then press [END] to hang up.

What if the call doesn't go through?

Try changing the dial mode (see below).

What if there is a lot of static?

Check the sources of interference described in section

1-1 on Choosing the best location: is the base near

any of those?

Changing from tone to pulse dialing (DIAL)

Your phone can communicate with the telephone network in two dierent ways: tone dialing or pulse dialing.

These days, most phone networks use a method called tone dialing, so your phone comes programmed for tone

dialing.

If your phone company uses pulse dialing, you need to change your phone’s dial settings. If you don't get a dial

tone or can't connect to the telephone network, follow the steps below to modify your phone’s settings:

With the phone in standby, press and hold [cid/menu].

Press [ ] to move the pointer to DIAL.

Press [select/channel] to set the phone to pulse dialing.

Press [END] and put the handset back in the base. The handset communicates the new setting to the

base.

Note: If you use pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones during a call (if you're using an automated

response system, for example), press [ /tone/ ] to temporarily switch to tone dialing. When the call

ends, the phone automatically returns to pulse dialing mode.

Now your phone is ready to use!

1-5. Attach the Belt Clip

To attach the belt clip

Insert the tabs on the side of the belt clip into the holes on either side of the handset.

Press the belt clip down until it clicks into place. (Tug on the clip to make sure it’s

secure.)

To remove the belt clip

Gently pull the tabs out of the holes, then slide the belt clip o of the handset.

5) Using Caller ID and Call Waiting

If you subscribe to Caller ID from your phone company, your phone will show you the caller's phone number and

name (if available) whenever a call comes in. If you subscribe to both Call Waiting and Caller ID, the phone also

shows you the name and the number of any call that comes in while you're on the line.

The date and time received

Caller's name

Caller's Phone Number

Note: If you answer a call before the Caller ID record is received (for example, before the second ring), the Caller

ID record will not appear.

The phone stores the Caller ID information for up to thirty incoming calls - even unanswered calls. If the phone

receives more Caller ID records than it can store, the oldest record in the list is automatically deleted.

For information on storing Caller ID records in the phonebook, see section 6-6.

5-1. Reviewing the Caller ID Record List

You can review the Caller ID list when the handset is in standby or during a call.

Press [cid/menu]. The summary screen displays the total number of CID

records along with the number of new CID records (that is, calls that you

haven't reviewed yet).

Use [ ] to scroll through the records from the latest to the earliest, or

use [ ] to scroll through the records from the earliest to the latest.

Press [cid/menu] to exit the Caller ID list.

For new Caller ID records, the phone keeps a count of the number of calls

received from the same caller (instead of saving the information multiple

times). The Caller ID record shows the time and date of the most recent call

from that number, and the number of calls appears next to the received time.

The phone only maintains this count for new or “unviewed” records: once you

review that record, the number is cleared.

5-2. Making a Call from the Caller ID List

With the phone in standby, press [cid/menu].

Use [ ] or [ ] to nd the Caller ID record you want to call.

If you need to add or delete a “1” from the displayed phone number, press [1].

What’s this “add or delete a 1” about?

Any phone number in the Caller ID records might (or might not!) have a “1” at the front, depending on how

dierent phone companies send the Caller ID information.

The phone dials the number exactly as it appears in the Caller ID record.

If the phone number is a long distance or toll call, but the Caller ID record does not have a “1” in front of the

number, press [1] to add it.

If the phone number is a local or non-toll call, but the Caller ID record has a “1” in front of the number, press

[1] to delete it.

5-3. Using Seven Digits Instead of Ten

If you can make a local call by dialing only seven digits instead of ten, you can tell the phone to hide your local

area code in the Caller ID list; any calls from outside your area code will show all ten digits.

Entering your area code

With the phone in standby, press and hold [cid/menu].

Press [ ] to move the pointer to select AREA CODE. If an area code was already stored, the handset will

display it.

Press [select/channel] to edit the area code.

Use the number keys ([0] – [9]) to enter all three digits of your area code.

If you make a mistake, press [delete] to erase the last digit.

When the number is correct, press [select/channel]. A conrmation tone sounds.

Press [END]. The handset returns to standby.

The phone uses the stored area code as a lter. When a call comes in, the phone compares the incoming area

code to the code programmed in the handset. If the two codes match, the handset hides the area code in the

Caller ID list.

When you’re in the Caller ID list, you can show the hidden area code by pressing [3]. Press [3] again to hide

the area code.

When you dial from a Caller ID list or store a Caller ID record in the phonebook, the phone dials or stores the

digits exactly as they appear on the display. If you need to use ten digits, be sure to press [3] to show the area

code before you dial or store the number. See Section 6-6, Storing Caller ID Records in the Phonebook.

5-4. Deleting Caller ID Records

If you get an incoming call or page, the operation is canceled.

5-5. Using Call Waiting

If you subscribe to Call Waiting and a second call comes in when you are

on the phone, the phone sounds a call waiting tone. If you also have Caller

ID service, the phone shows the Caller ID information for the incoming

call. To put the original call on hold and switch to the waiting call, press

[TALK/ash]. After a slight pause, you are connected to the new caller. Press

[TALK/ash] again to switch back to the original caller.

OR

To hang up and answer the new call, press [END]. The phone disconnects the original caller and switches to the

new caller.

6) Using the Phonebook (speed dial memory)

If you enter phone numbers (along with names) into the handset’s phonebook/speed dial memory, you can

dial them with just two key presses.

The handset can store ten dierent phonebook entries (corresponding to 0 through 9 on the number keypad).

You can use the phonebook to store any number up to twenty digits. This is useful if you have a series of digits

that you need to enter after your call connects, such as an access code or account number (See section 6-7 on

Chain Dialing).

When you’re editing the phonebook, you must press a key within thirty seconds or the phone will return to standby.

6-1. Entering a New Number into the Phonebook

With the phone in standby, press [ /memory] to open the phonebook

list.

Enter a number ([0] – [9]) or press [ ] or [ ] to nd a phonebook

entry that shows <EMPTY> beside it, and press [select/channel]. The

handset opens the STORE NAME screen.

Use the letters above the number keys to enter a name for this phonebook

entry. Press [select/channel] when you’re nished (or if you don't want

to enter a name). The handset opens the STORE NUMBER screen.

8-2. Re-registering the Handset

When you rst put your handset into the base, it is registered so it can communicate with the base. There may

be some times when you have to re-register your handset to the base:

When you want to change the handset-to-base code.

When there is a power failure that lasts more than one hour.

If the handset's battery is completely discharged. (The handset must be recharged for 15 - 20 hours before

re-registering to the base.)

Any time you experience diculty connecting to the base to make or receive calls.

To re-register the handset:

Pick up the handset from the base. Press and hold [nd hs] on the base.

While holding [nd hs], place the handset in the base. The charge/in use LED on the base begins to ash,
