Blocking unwanted callers:
When a call is received, the unit will not ring
while caller information is being received.
If the caller’s phone number matches an entry
in the call block list, the unit emits no sound to
the caller, and disconnects the call.

“

in “Turning the first ring on/off”
(page 40).
Storing a single phone number
Important:

We recommend storing 10 digits (including
the area code). If only 7 digits are stored, all
numbers that have the same last 7 digits
will be blocked.
