Entering a Pause

In some telephone systems, you must dial an access code (9, for example) and wait for a second dial tone before you can dial an outside number. You can store the access code with the phone number. However, you must also store a pause after the access code to allow the outside line time to connect. To do so, press PAUSE. Each press enters a 2-sec- ond pause. For a longer pause, press PAUSE additional times.

PAUSE

Dialing a Memory Number

To dial a number stored in memory, lift the handset or press TALK. The TALK/ BATT indicator lights.

When you hear a dial tone, simply press MEM and enter the memory location number for the number you want to dial.

Or, to dial a number stored in the memo- ry location 1, 2, or 3, just press M1, M2, or M3. You need not press TALK when you use these buttons.

Note: If you select an empty memory lo- cation, the phone beeps 5 times. Try again.

Chain-Dialing Service

Numbers

For quick recall of numbers for special services (such as alternate long dis- tance or bank by phone), store each group of numbers in its own memory lo- cation.

To use the stored special service infor- mation, dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press MEM and the number for the location where the additional infor- mation is stored.

Testing Stored Emergency Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s number (police department, fire depart- ment, ambulance) and you choose to test the stored number, make the test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid peak demand periods. Also, remain on the line to ex- plain the reason for your call.

USING A HEADSET

You can talk with hands-free conve- nience using an optional headset that has a 3/32-inch (2.5-mm) plug. Contact your local RadioShack store for a suit- able headset.
