CHAIN DIALING FROM MEMORY
Use this feature to make calls which require a sequence of numbers, for instance if you use a calling card for a frequently called long distance number. The following example shows how you can use chain dialing to make a call through a long distance service:
The Number For | Memory Location |
Long distance access number | 7 |
Authorization code | 8 |
Frequently called long distance number | 9 |
|
|
1.Make sure the phone is ON.
2.Press memory and then press 7.
3.When you hear the access tone, press memory and then press 8.
4.At the next access tone, press memory and then 9.
When the phone rings:
1.Wait until the answering system answers the call.
2.Press the answerer button to gain access to the answering system.
3.Listen to the caller leaving a message.
4.Press the TALK button to talk to the person or press answerer to stop screening the call.
MEMORY FULL
When the memory is full, the system answers after 10 rings, and announces, “Memory full.” If you don't enter the security code within 10 seconds after the announcement, the phone beeps and hangs up.
You need to erase some of the messages in order for the system to record new incoming messages.
NOTE: The unit also answers after the 10th ring if it is turned off. To access the answering system from another location, enter your
Allow the handset battery to properly charge (for 12 hours) prior to first use or when you install a new battery pack. If you don’t properly charge the phone, battery performance will be compromised.
NOTE: If the battery is not installed in the handset, or if the battery is not properly connected to the jack inside the battery compartment, the TALK button on the handset blinks when the handset is placed on the base cradle.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the battery listed in the instruction book.

•To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the battery listed in the User’s Guide.
