Telephoning

Muting the microphone in the handset

The microphone in the handset can be activated and deactivated during a telephone con-

versation.

This enables you to confer with a third party, for example, without the caller being able

to hear you. The handset loudspeaker, however, remains on; i.e. you can still hear the

caller.

 Switch the microphone on/off (muting)

Displaying the duration of a call

A few seconds after a telephone conversation begins, the display automatically stops showing

the caller number and displays the duration of call in hours, minutes and seconds instead.

Range

The handset has a range of approx. 50 meters in closed rooms and approx. 300 meters out-

doors.

In the case of a good connection to the base station, the

icon appears continuously in the

display.

If the handset is moved too far from the base station, the icon flashes and acoustic warning

signals are issued.

Move towards the base station, otherwise the call will be disconnected.
