Your Phone’s Mode
Standby Mode
Standby is the most basic state of your phone. The

phone is in Standby mode, you will typically see the
current date and time. If you enter a phone number,
you can press to dial it, or press to save it
in the internal Phonebook.
Press at any time to return to Standby mode. Be
careful; if you are on a call when you press , you
will return to Standby mode, but it also disconnects
the call. Press
several times or hold it down to
return to Standby mode without ending the call.

You can place and answer calls only when your
phone is turned on. During a call, the phone is in Talk

Options.” See page xx for details on the options.
