Single phone numbers and ranges of numbers
can be stored in the call block list up to 250
items in total.
Blocking unwanted callers:
When a call is received, the unit rings once
while caller information is being received.
If the caller's phone number matches an entry
in the call block list, the unit emits no sound to
the caller, and disconnects the call.
*1 If you do not want this one ring to sound,
select "No" in "Turning the first ring on/
off" (page 36).
Storing a single phone number
Important:
R We recommend storing 10 digits (including
the area code). If only 7 digits are stored, all
numbers that have the same last 7 digits
will be blocked.
