Using the Interface
Using the Four-way Function Key
Your handset and base have a four-way function
key that allows you to move the cursor or pointer
on the display and access the most commonly
used features at the touch of a button. By moving
this key to the left, you open the phonebook.
Move the key to the right to access Caller ID
information. To use this four-way key, place your
thumb over the key and move to the four positions
to get the feel of how it moves and operates.
Using the Menus
The menus for the handset and the base work in
the same way:
To open the menu, press the [menu/select] key. •
The arrow pointer on the left side of the line shows which menu item is currently highlighted. Use [ • ] on the four-
way function key to move the pointer up and [ ] to move the pointer down.
To select the highlighted option, press • [menu/select].
To go back to the previous screen, press • [left] on the four-way function key.
To exit the menu on the handset, press • [ ].
To exit the menu on the base, press • [ ].
If you don’t press any keys for thirty seconds, the phone will time out and exit the menu. (When setting the day •
and time, the time-out period is extended to two minutes.)
For ANSW. SETUP, GLOBAL SETUP, DAY & TIME and REGISTER HANDSET (base only) menu options, make •
sure the line is not in use and the handsets are within range of the base.
