Setting up the LCD Screen Contrast, Language, 

Area Code, Time and Date

Y

ou may need to set up the LCD Screen contrast level, language, area code, time,

Caller ID records list.
Press and hold down on the 

button, then press the 

button, the

following will display on the LCD Screen (FIG. 1). Release the

Press the 

button to confirm and accept. Then the LCD Screen will

change to the “SET LANGUAGE” setup screen.

The default language "E" ("E" =English; "F" =French; "S" =Spanish) will flash (FIG 2).
