Night mode
Night mode allows you to select a block of time 
during which the handset will not ring for outside 
calls. This feature is useful for times when you do 
not want to be disturbed, for example, while 
sleeping. Night mode can be set independently 
for the handset and the base unit (page 32).
Using the handset phonebook’s category feature 
(page 19), you can also select categories of 
callers whose calls will override night mode and 
ring the handset (Caller ID subscribers only).
Set the date and time beforehand (page 14).
