SETTING THE
DIALING MODE
Set PULSE/TONE on the back of the base for the type of service you have. If you are not sure which type you have, once the battery pack is fully charged, do this test.
1.Be sure PULSE/TONE is set to
TONE.
2.Lift the handset, press TALK, and listen for a dial tone.
3.Press any number other than 0.
Note: If your phone system requires that you dial an access code (9, for example) before you dial an outside number, do not dial the access code either.
If the dial tone stops, you have touch- tone service. Leave PULSE/TONE set to TONE.
If the dial tone continues, you have pulse service. Set PULSE/TONE to
PULSE.

SETTING THE RINGERS
Turning the Ringers On or Off
You can turn the ringers on the base or handset on or off.
Use RINGER OFF/ON on the base to turn the ringer on the base on or off.
Use RINGER OFF/ON on the handset's left side to turn the handset’s ringer on or off.
Notes:
•The handset does not ring when it is on the base, even when RINGER OFF/ON is set to ON.
•If you turn off the ringer, you can still make calls (and answer calls if you hear another phone on the same line ringing).
