When a power failure occurs, the charged handset temporarily supplies power to the base unit (power backup mode). This allows you to make and receive landline calls using a handset during a power failure. The base unit will not perform any other functions. However, some functions such as Caller ID and phonebook are available only when using a handset other than the handset supplying power to the base unit. You can program “Power failure” and the default setting is “Auto” (page 48).

Important:

If a handset is not placed on the base unit when a power failure occurs, “Power outage Press OFF” is displayed. After pressing [OFF] on the handset, place it on the base unit to start power backup mode.

Baby monitor

This feature allows you to listen in on a room where another handset is located, allowing you to easily monitor from different areas of the house or even while away from home. The monitored handset (placed in a baby’s room, for example) will automatically call the monitoring handset, base unit, or the phone number stored when it detects sound.

Important:

Before using this feature, we recommend that you test this feature and adjust the baby monitor sensitivity as needed, especially if you plan to monitor from outside.
This feature should not be used as a substitute for a medical or caregiver’s supervision. It is the caregiver’s responsibility to stay close enough to handle any eventuality.

Note:

If the unit is connected to a PBX system, you cannot set the baby monitor.
During the monitoring mode, battery consumption is faster than usual. We recommend leaving the monitored handset on the base unit or charger.
The monitored handset never rings while it is being monitored. If the base unit is placed near the monitored handset, we recommend turning off the base unit ringer volume (page 49, 50)

Caller ID number auto edit feature

Handset / Base unit

Once you call back an edited number, the unit which was used to call back remembers the area code and format of the edited number. The next time someone calls from the same area code, caller information is customized by the unit as follows:

– When the call is being received, the Caller ID number is displayed in the same format as the edited number.

– After the call has ended, the caller’s phone number is displayed in the same format as the edited number, when reviewed from the caller list.

For example, you can use this feature to set the unit to ignore the area code of callers in your area, so that you can call these local numbers using caller information without dialing the area code.

To activate this feature, you must edit an entry in the caller list, then call that number. After that, phone numbers from that caller’s area code are edited automatically.

This feature can be set for each unit (page 47, 50). The default setting is “On”.

Useful Information

Voicemail service for landline

In addition to your unit’s answering system you may also have voicemail service from your phone service provider. Voicemail is an answering service that may be offered by your phone service provider. This service can also record calls when you are unavailable to answer the phone or when your line is busy. Messages are recorded on the phone company system and not on the unit’s answering system.

To use the voicemail service rather than the unit’s answering system, turn off the answering system (page 65).

If you have unit’s answering system set to on and also the voicemail enabled, the system with least amount of rings will record the message first.

Example: If the unit’s answering system is set to 4 rings (page 70) and the voicemail answering system provided by your phone company is set to 6 rings (call your service provider), the unit’s answering system will record the incoming call first.

Storing the voicemail (VM) access number

In order to listen to your voicemail messages, you must dial your phone service provider’s voicemail access number. Once you have stored your voicemail access number, you can dial it automatically (page 73).

Handset

1. [MENU]

2. Enter your access number (24 digits max.). [SAVE] [OFF]

Note:

When storing your voicemail access number and your mailbox password, press (Pause) to add pauses (page 24) between the access number and the password as necessary. Contact your phone service provider for the required pause time.

Example:

Voicemail (VM) tone detection

Handset / Base unit

Your phone service provider sends special signals (sometimes called “voicemail tones” or “stutter tones”) to the unit to let you know you have new voicemail messages. If you hear a series of dial tones followed by a continuous dial tone after you press on the handset or press on the base unit, you have new voicemail messages. Soon after you hang up a call or after the phone stops ringing, your unit checks the phone line to see if new voicemail messages have been recorded.

Turn this feature off when:

– You do not subscribe to voicemail service.

– Your phone service provider does not send voicemail tones.

– Your phone is connected to a PBX. If you are not sure which setting is required, contact your phone service provider.
