ADDITIONAL OPERATING TIPS

OUT OF RANGE INDICATION
When the handset is in Phone On
mode and moved to a point where it
and the Base Unit can no longer com-
municate, the Handset will beep twice
and display OUT OF RANGE:
and attempt to re-link with the Base. If
this occurs while you’re on a call, move
closer to the Base Unit.
If the Handset does not re-establish
contact with the Base within 30 sec-
onds of losing contact, the Handset will
automatically drop the call and turn off.
If you walk out of range while the
Handset is not in use, the Handset will
beep twice and display OUT OF
RANGE until the user press any key.
NOTE: If the Base Unit is without
power, the Handset will behave as if
it is out of range. Therefore, if the
handset beeps, the display OUT OF
RANGE occurs, and moving closer to
the Base does not help, check the
Base Unit to make sure it has
power.
MESSAGE WAITING
INDICATOR
(for use with
Voicemail)
Your VT 1721 is capable of detecting
a visual Message Waiting signal, gen-
erated by many phone service provid-
ers. If you subscribe to Voicemail serv-
ice from your local telephone com-
pany, and a visual message waiting
signal is provided, the VT 1721 will
display on the right side of the
Handset LCD to alert you with new
unplayed messages.
Once you have reviewed your new
messages, the indicator will be
cleared from the display.
NOTE: Message Waiting indicator
works in conjunction with Voicemail
service from many local phone
companies. This is an optional
service; you are not required to
subscribe to it.
