Quick Start Guide

You save the custom filters directly to your phone so that you can quickly select and change coverage. You
can define a maximum of 20 custom filters, but only one filter may be active at a time.
If both the Custom Line Filters and the Actionable Incoming Call Alert features are enabled, actionable
call alerts apply only to the lines that are covered by filters.
