Operating modes
ON/OFF/PROTECTED modes
You can switch your handset to
● protected mode,
● off,
● and on (again).
When the handset is in protected mode, it is protected
against unintended use. The handset switches on auto-
matically to receive incoming calls. If you want to make an
outgoing call, you will have to switch the handset on first.
When the handset is switched off, incoming calls are not
signalled. You have to switch on the handset before mak-
ing a call.
Switching the handset to protected mode
PROTECTED mode is useful, for example, if you
carry your telephone in a bag.
To preserve the batteries, we recommend that
you switch off the handset if you move outside
the base station radio range.
If the handset has been switched on and out-
side the radio range for a longer period of time,
you can speed up the process of “finding” the
base station again by switching the handset off
for a moment and switching it on again.
