Primary line… Choose a default line – Line 1, Line 2 or None – for
outgoing calls. Choosing a primary line lets you dedicate each line to a
specific purpose, for example, if you wish to keep private calls and
work-related calls separate. It also allows you to keep separate Caller ID
and Redial lists for each line. For more information, refer to page 36.
Clock… Use the wheel and the OK key to enter the time and date.
Auto lock… Options are On and Off. Locking the handset keypad
prevents inadvertent operation of the keys. You can still receive calls,
but the handset keypad locks again automatically after you end a call.
To unlock the handset temporarily, press OK, turn the wheel to display
Unlock – Yes? and press OK. In this situation, the handset locks itself
again automatically after a timed delay if you do not press keys or use
the wheel. Unlock the handset permanently via the Settings menu.
News indicator… The news indication – the flashing red light on the
handset and the display message indicating new, unanswered calls – is
set to On from the factory, so you can see how many new calls you
have received. Options are On and Off.
Area codes… Select options to match the requirements of your
telephone company. ‘Area codes’ contains two sub-menus: ‘Dial’ and
‘Area code’.
– ‘Dial’ indicates whether or not area codes must be dialled for local calls.
Options are Yes and No.
– ‘Area code’ allows you to enter up to ten area codes.
Battery alert… Alerts you audibly when the handset battery requires
charging. Options are On, Off and Timed off. If you select Timed off,
you can then use the wheel to set a daily time period during which the
battery alert will not occur – for example, between 10 pm and 7 am.
Note that if you select a primary
line, the display of new,
unanswered calls will only inform
you about calls received on that
line.
Regarding area codes:
Telephone companies have
different requirements regarding
how to make local calls. The
settings you choose in the Area
Codes menu are determined by the
requirements of your particular
company. If your telephone
company requires you to dial:
– 1+area code+number for all
calls… set ‘Dial’ to Yes and do
not enter an area code for the
option ‘Area code’;
– area code+number for local
calls… set ‘Dial’ to Yes. For ‘Area
code’, you can enter up to ten
area codes that fall within your
local calling area;
– neither 1 nor area code for
local calls… set ‘Dial’ to No and
enter your own area code for
‘Area code’.
