3. Overview of Buttons and Functions
The concept of the Silvercrest USB Phone is exactly the same as that of a traditional telephone. Most buttons
and functions can hence be operated intuitively. But because telephoning via the internet offers a number of
additional functions as compared with a traditional telephone conversation, the USB Phone is also equipped
with several extra buttons.
