Answer, silence, or decline an incoming call
Silence and Decline are carrier dependent features.
1. Press the call key to answer the call.
2. To mute the ringing tone, select Silence. If you do not answer the call, the call
is forwarded to voicemail.
3. To dismiss and forward the call to voicemail (a carrier dependent feature),
select Decline after you have muted the ringing tone, or press the end key
at any time.
Answer a call with the keypad locked
To answer a call with the keypad locked, press the call key. During the call, all
features function normally. When you end, silence or decline the call, the
keypad automatically relocks. See "Keyguard," p. 19.
When the keyguard is on, calls still may be possible to the official emergency
number programed into your device.
Adjust the earpiece volume
While in a call, scroll up or down to adjust the volume of the earpiece.
When you adjust the volume, a bar chart appears in the display to indicate the
volume level.
Use the loudspeaker
You can use your phone as a loudspeaker during a call.
• To activate the loudspeaker, select Loudspeaker.
• To deactivate the loudspeaker during a call, select Handset.
The loudspeaker is deactivated automatically when a call (or a call attempt) ends,
or when certain enhancements are connected.
Warning: Do not hold the device near your ear when the loudspeaker is
in use, because the volume may be extremely loud.
