Emergency Service Feature
The Sayson 390/480 will provide telephone service
during a power failure. However, only the dial pad,
ringer and handset will function. If you are on a hand-
set call during a power interruption, The Sayson
390/480 will keep the call, although the display will not
work while the power is off. Handsfree calls will not
be reestablished during a power interruption.
