Note: If more than one number is on the display, the numbers are displayed in a list. Simply select the phone number you want to call

and press . If no numbers are found, your phone will display No number found.

When your phone’s memory is full

When you have an incoming text message and your phone’s memory is full, one or more messages, of lowest priority, will automatically be deleted in order to receive the new text message.

If the message memory is still full, your phone will display No space: read messages. You can clear this notification by pressing OK.

Note: Messages are usually deleted from your Inbox. An incoming emergency message may delete messages from your Saved folder.

Touch tone length

This feature determines the length of each touch tone when they are sent automatically.

Short sets the tone length to .1 second. Long sets the tone length to .5 second.

You can set the touch tone length by pressing Menu

4 2 3 2 (Settings - Phone settings - Touch tones - Touch tone length).

Touch tones

Your phone can generate various sounds, called touch tones, when the keys are pressed. These are also known as DTMF tones.

Touch tones can be used for many automated, over-the- phone services such as checking bank balances, airline arrival and departure times, and using voice mailbox options. Touch tones can be sent only when a call is active.

Storing touch tone strings

Store touch tone strings the same way you store phone numbers (see page 52).

70

You can store a whole digit sequence in your phone book and send it as touch tones for frequently-used strings of numbers.

Sending a touch tone string

Make sure Menu 4-2-3-1 (Settings - Phone settings - Touch tones - Manual touch tones) is not set to Off. During a call,

1.Press Options

2.Scroll to Touch tones and press OK

3.Enter touch tone string or recall string from the phone book and press OK

Note: Use caution when sending confidential information over the air when using DTMF tones in analog mode.

Storing touch tone strings with phone numbers

1.Enter the phone number (e.g. your office voice mailbox)

2.Press ∗∗∗ (p) or ∗∗∗∗ (w)

3.Enter the touch tone string (e.g. voice mailbox password)

4.Store the number as you normally would

Note: See “Special Characters (for storing & calling numbers)” on page 37 for details on “p” and “w” characters.

When you dial this number, your phone first dials the phone number, then waits (because of the “w” character) for you to press Send. Your phone then sends your password.

If you include a “p” character instead of a “w”, your phone pauses for 2.5 seconds, then automatically sends your password as touch tones.

Linking phone numbers with touch tone strings

This feature allows you to store a phone number in one phone book location and link it to another phone book location that contains a touch tone string.
