Using a handset as a room monitor

If room monitor mode is activated, the saved destination number is called as soon
as a defined noise level is exceeded in the vicinity of the handset. You can save an
internal or external number in your handset as the destination number.
The room monitor call to an external number is cancelled after approx. 90 seconds,
even if the call is accepted. The room monitor call to an internal number is cancelled
after approx. 3 minutes (depending on the base). When the room monitor is acti-
vated, the talk and menu keys are locked. The handset's speaker is deactivated.
When room monitor mode is activated, incoming calls are only indicated on the dis-
play (without a ringtone and silent alert). The display backlight is reduced to 50%.
Advisory tones are deactivated. A paging call is only signalled visually.
If you accept an incoming call, the room monitor mode is suspended for the dura-
tion of the call, but the function remains activated.
The room monitor is not deactivated by switching the handset off and on again.
