About Your Phone:
Your phone contains many single-purpose buons called keys
that allow quick, one-buon operaons. The display screen is
surrounded by 14 keys as shown here:
T
There are ve keys on each side of the screen, and four keys
below the screen. The keys along the side of the screen are
programmable, and change depending on the conguraon
of your phone. In this example, there are three line keys and
three park buons. The boom four keys on the right side
have not been programmed, so they are blank.
The four keys along the boom of the screen are labeled
History, Directory, DND, and Menu. We’ll explain these keys
in a later secon.
There are 15 keys on the lower secon of the phone,
surrounding the numeric dial pad.
The four-way keypad at the top le is used to navigate the
phone’s menu system, and the four keys also double as
shortcuts. Pressing UP displays the call history, and pressing
DOWN displays the number directory, LEFT and RIGHT select
the line appearance key to use for making an outgoing call.
The + and - buons below the 4-way keypad adjust the
volume. Pressing these keys when you are not engaged
in a call adjusts the ringer volume. Pressing them while
you are in a call adjusts the volume of the handset,
speaker, or headset.
There are seven keys to the right of the numeric keypad.
