Verizon V500AM –
more than just a telephone
Your phone not only lets you store up to
50 phone numbers (page 15), it can do a
whole lot more:
u Phone directly using the base station:
Your base station has the same keys as
your handset. So nearly all functions
you usually use on the handset are also
available directly on the base station.
u Use two telephone lines with only one
telephone.
u Make conference calls with two exter-
nal parties (page 27).
u View missed calls on your phone
(page 16).
u ECO DECT uses a power supply with
low power consumption. Your handset
reduces the transmission power
depending on its distance from the
base station (close-up range).
