Temporary ringer silencing
Press  OFF/CLEAR or DELETE/MUTE while the  
telephone is ringing to silence the ringer temporarily. 
This will silence the ringer without disconnecting the 
call. The next incoming call will ring normally at the 
preset volume.
NOTE: Each handset will ring when there is an incoming 
call unless the ringer volume is turned off. Pressing  
OFF/CLEAR or DELETE/MUTE on one handset will only 
silence the ringer of that particular handset.
