Use the Volume button to turn the ringer sound all the way down.

Slide the Ringer switch to Sound Off

including the ringer. (Your Treo vibrates briefly when you set the Ringer switch to Sound
Off

. All sounds remain off until you slide the Ringer switch back to Sound On

.)

When you silence the ringer, you can either press Phone/Talk

Power/End

to send the call directly to voicemail, or let it ring through to voicemail.

Tip

You can also ignore a call and send a text message. Press

send text messages, but you cannot use data features such as Web
browsing and sending and receiving email.

Tip

If music is playing when a call arrives, the music pauses as soon as the
device starts ringing, and remains paused during your call. Music playback
resumes automatically when the call ends or the ringing stops. The
Windows Media

®

Player screen remains on if you don’t answer the call, and

it closes if you do. When playback resumes, the Windows Media Player
screen remains in the background even after playback resumes.

Did you know?

When you are on a plane, you can turn off your phone and all wireless
services using

Wireless Manager

(see “Turning Wireless Services On and

Off” on page 340). But you can still wake up the screen and use any
application that doesn’t require wireless services, like the calendar, music
player, and games. You can even read and write email and text messages
while your phone is off, but you cannot send or receive email or text
messages.
