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 should also store a pause after the access code to allow the outside line time to connect. To do so, press REDIAL to enter a 2-second pause after entering the access code. For a longer pause, press REDIAL again.

Dialing a Stored Number

To dial a stored number, lift the handset and press TALK. When you hear the dial tone, press MEM, then enter the memory location number (0120)for the stored number.

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.

When calling special services, dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press MEM, then enter the memory location number for the additional stored numbers.

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 AN OPTIONAL HEADSET

Your TAD-733’s handset is equipped with a headset jack on top. This jack al- lows you to connect a headset (not sup- plied) for handsfree conversation. The belt clip on the back of the handset lets you carry the handset everywhere. A va- riety of headsets are available at your lo- cal RadioShack store.

Follow these steps to use a headset.

1.Insert the headset’s 3/32 inch (2.5 mm) plug into the jack on the top of the handset.
