Using the phone as a transceiver
This section describes how to use the phone when it has been regis-
tered in the home base unit.
Before using the phone as a transceiver
• Make sure that the reception mode is set to Transceiver (t) or Trans-
ceiver -Public (tP).
• If the reception mode is Transceiver -Public (tP), you can receive calls
from a public line but can not make calls to a public line.
• The approximate range for calls is 100 meters. (However, the range
will vary depending on the conditions.)
• Transceiver calls are set to be cut-off after three minutes. After a few
seconds, the phone will automatically try to reconnect to the same
party, so please wait for the phone to reconnect you to continue your
conversation. However, depending on the type of phone the other
party is using, the phone may not be able to automatically reconnect
you. If this happens, enter the number again.
Making a call
1
Open the flip cover and enter the other
party’s transceiver number.
2
Press the
key.
When the other party answers your call, begin speaking.
The amount of time you are connected is shown on the display.
3
When you have finished the call, press the
key.
You can also terminate the connection by closing the flip cover. Five
seconds after the flip cover is closed, the connection will be terminated.
Answering a call
Open the flip cover or press the
key.
You can start talking with the other party and the time of the call is shown
on the display.
• When you receive a transceiver call, in
addition to the ring tone being emitted, “trn
LInE” blinks on the display. If the other
party’s number has been stored in the
phonebook, that number and “trn LInE “
are displayed alternately in the display.
