Battery saving mode setting
This feature allows the base unit to reduce its
power consumption by limiting the available
functions and therefore extend battery life during a
power failure.
The following settings are available:
– “On” : The unit will work as a standard
telephone. Only the corded handset can be
used to make and receive calls. (You cannot
use the base unit display, phonebook,
one-touch dial, answering system,
speakerphone, etc.)
The base unit display is blank.
– “Off” (default): You can use the full functions
of the base unit, but battery life is not extended.
The brightness level for the base unit display is
lowered.
