Standby Mode
The phone has an automatic power save 
function to extend battery operated usage.  
The product will switch into Standby with-
in one minute of being in an idle inactive 
state.  The console will not go into Stand-
by if there is an active call, even if there 
are pauses in the conversation.  While in 
Standby mode, the LCD will display a 
“Standby Mode” message.  Any key press 
will “wake” the phone up.  All features of 
the phones are instantly available by press-
ing the normal key sequences.  Incoming 
calls and paging also functions normally 
while the phone is in Standby, and will 
switch the phone to active use mode.
►  Standby mode saves power but is 
not an “Off” function.  If you want 
to fully turn the unit off, unplug the 
battery.
►  While in Standby mode, the LCD 
display will still show estimated 
remaining talk time.  Talk time is shown 
numerically in hours to the right of the 
battery icon.
►  The console will switch into Stand-
by, even if it is not registerd to the base 
station.  For example, if you travel with 
the phone to a remote location without 
the base station, the console will switch 
into Standby to conserve power.
►  The console will automatically re-
register to its base station from Standby 
mode, if it is within range and the base 
station is powered.
►  In some cases, the phone will not 
go into Standby mode when a mobile 
phone is plugged in, even if the mobile 
phone is not in an active call.  In these 
cases the LCD message will continue to 
say “Mobile Phone In”.  Either turn off 
the mobile phone, or unplug it from the 
console to enable Standby.
►  The phone will not go into Standby 
while charging.
