Out-of-Range Warning
If you venture too far from the base, the handset will beep. Reverse your
direction to re-establish connection with the base or the call will be dropped.
When the base detects that the handset has been out of range for 20 contin-
uous seconds it will release the engaged line.
Channel Changing
If you are experiencing interference during a telephone call, press the
D
/CHAN key. The PMP-3850 will scan up to 50 channels and select the
clearest one to provide the best possible reception.
Extension In-Use
The PMP-3850 is capable of detecting when another phone
that is connected to the same phone line is being used. In
this situation, the display will show “
EXT IN-USE” and the
Private Call indicator will blink on the LCD screen. You will
have to wait until the line is free to make a telephone call.
If, during a conversation, the base IN USE LED begins to blink, an extension
phone has gone off-hook.
Note: If the telephone line cord is not connected to the wall jack and the
telephone base, the display will also indicate “EXT IN-USE.”

If you subscribe to voice mail from the telephone
company and if there are voice messages that
have been left in your voice mailbox, the display
will show
"MSG WAITING.”
Note: This function requires voice mail subscription from the local telephone
company. Furthermore, the local phone company must provide a type of
voice mail signaling called "FSK” (Frequency Shift Key). Not all
telephone companies have the visual message waiting feature available.
Please contact your local telephone company to check if this is available
in your area.
Tip: If you wish to delete the "Message Waiting" message, delete them as described
in the handset settings section “Deleting the Message Waiting Indication” (see
page 27).
