First Steps
Note:
Date and time settings apply to base station and
all registered handsets.
Date and time format settings apply only to your
own handset or to the base station. You must set
date and time format at each device separately.
Selecting the line settings
For each handset and the base station, you
can set how your telephone will use the two
telephone lines:
Auto All incoming calls will ring. For
outgoing calls, your phone will
use whichever line is currently
free.
Line 1 / Line 2
Only incoming calls on the
respective line can be answered
with the c key. For outgoing
calls, your phone will always use
the selected line.
If you have selected Line 1 or Line 2, you can
still answer or make a call on the free line by
using the C or h keys.

Area codes
To make a call using the Incoming Calls list
(page 17), your phone's area code must be
stored. If you reside in a service area where
Line 1 and Line 2 have been assigned diffe-
rent area codes by your network provider,
you are able to store area codes for Line 1
and Line 2 independently of each other.
