MAKING/ANSWERING A
CALL
You can use your cordless telephone
in two ways: at the base or away from
the base.
Using the Handset at the
Base
You can use the handset at the base
like a regular corded telephone. Just
set the handset’s
POWER
to
ON
and
place the handset in the cradle.
To answer a call, just lift the handset
from the base.
To make a call, lift the handset from
the base and press
TALK
so the TALK
indicator lights.
To disconnect a call, replace the hand-
set on the base.
Using the Handset Away from
the Base
To use the handset away from the
base, set
POWER
to
ON
, then press
TALK
to make or answer a call. The
TALK indicator lights.
To disconnect a call, press
TALK
so
the TALK indicator turns off.
Notes:
• To conserve battery power, you
can turn off the handset’s power
when you are not making or
answering a call. The cordless
phone does not ring when it
receives an incoming call with the
handset’s power turned off. How-
ever, other phones on the same
line still ring. Set
POWER
to
ON
to
answer the call using the cordless
phone.
• You can make or answer a call on
a phone on the same line as the
cordless phone, even if the hand-
set is away from the base.
