Additional tasks
Note
Even when you set the L1 or L2 RINGER LEVEL switch on the base unit to OFF,
the handset will ring when the ringer of the handset is turned on (see page 38).
Tips
• To inform you of an incoming call, the line button lights on and off according
to the ring signal even when you set the L1 or L2 RINGER LEVEL switch on
the base unit to OFF.
• If there is an incoming call while on the intercom, the base unit will ring at a
low level even when the L1 or L2 RINGER LEVEL switch on the base unit is
set to OFF.
To obtain the best speakerphone performance
• You may not be able to hear the other party’s voice in a noisy place.
Therefore, use the speakerphone in a quiet room.
• Do not bring your hand or other object too close to the microphone
or you will hear a shrill noise (“feedback”).
• When the speaker volume is loud, or the base unit has been placed
close to a wall, you may find that the volume drops suddenly. This
is due to a circuit in the telephone designed to protect against
feedback. In such cases, lower the speaker volume slightly.

Press
(PGM)
.
“ENTER NUMBER” appears.
5
Enter the phone number.
You can enter up to 32 digits, including a tone
and a pause, each of which is counted as one
digit.
When the phone number of 17 digits or more
has been entered, the phone number appears in
two lines.
6
Press
(PGM)
.
You will hear a long confirmation beep, and the
name and the number are stored. The display
goes off.
Notes
• If you intend to save a 51st phone number, you will hear five short error
beeps and “MEMORY FULL” will be displayed. You cannot store the phone
number. To store another phone number, erase one of the stored phone
numbers (see page 35).
• Do not allow more than 20 seconds to elapse between each step of the
procedure.
• The total number of phone numbers which can be stored into the Phone
Directory varies according to the number of digits of each phone number. If
all the phone numbers consist of up to 16 digits, you can store up to 50 phone
numbers. However, as the Phone Directory uses two-phone number memory
to store one phone number of 17 digits or more, the total number of phone
numbers which can be stored in the Phone Directory decreases two by two
every time you store a phone number of 17 digits or more.
Tips
• If you have entered a wrong name or number in step 3 or 5, turn Jog Dial
down to erase it. Then enter the correct name or number.
• You may press Jog Dial instead of
(PGM)
