press  {PAUSE } to add pauses after 
the number and PIN as necessary 
(page 16).
L If you have rotary/pulse service, you 
need to press  {*} (TONE) before 
pressing  {MENU } in step 1 to change 
the dialing mode temporarily to tone. 
When adding entries to the 
phonebook, we recommend adding 
{*} (TONE) to the beginning of 
phone numbers you wish to chain dial 
(page 20).

*8 If you subscribe to a Caller ID service and want to view the caller’s information after lifting up the handset to answer a call, turn off this feature.

{ FLASH } fails to pick up the waiting call.
*10Generally, the line mode setting should not be changed. This setting  automatically maintains receiver volume at the proper level depending on the 
current telephone line condition. Set the line mode to  “A ” if telephone line 
condition is not good.
*11The handset can display the Internet address where you can download the 
operating instructions or get further  information for this product, using your 
computer.

Call block (Caller ID 
subscribers only)
This feature allows the unit to reject calls 
when:
– the unit receives a call from a phone 
number stored in the call block list as 
unwanted (“Storing unwanted callers”, 
page 30).
– the unit receives a call without phone  number (“Block calls without phone 
number”, page 31).
When a call is received, the unit rings for 
a short time while the caller is being 
identified. If the phone number matches 
an entry in the call block list, the unit  sends out a busy tone to the caller, and 
then disconnects the call.
Important:
L
When the unit receives a call from a 
number that is stored in the call block 
list or a call without a recognized 
phone number, the call is logged in the 
caller list (page 34) with  $ after the 
call is disconnected.
Storing unwanted callers
You can store up to 30 phone numbers in 
the call block list by using the caller list or 
by entering the numbers directly.
Important:
L We recommend storing 10 digits 
(including an area code). If only 7 
digits are stored, all numbers that 
have the same last 7 digits will be 
blocked.
■ From the caller list:
1{< } CID
2{V} /{^} : Select the entry to be
