Operator’s Manual for operation of the
telephone using the multifunction

display date and time of the calls.
The COMAND can display phone
number and name of the other party
(e.g. if the COMAND detects an
incoming call, but also in other menus).
For the number to be displayed, the
number information must be
transmitted with the incoming call. The
same goes for the name display which
additionally requires that the caller’s
number and name are saved in the
phone book.

No ring or DTMF tones will be heard
when a phone set to silent mode is in-
serted into the cradle.
For ringtone settings, refer to the sepa-
rate operating instructions for the
