•When dialing a number, if you press a number and 3 short beeps sound, you are out of the base’s range, the battery is too low, or there is too much interference on the line. Move the handset closer to the base or recharge the bat- tery, if necessary.
USING FLASH
Use FLASH on the handset to send the electronic equivalent of a switchhook press for special services, such as call waiting.
USING REDIAL
To quickly redial the last number di- aled, simply lift the handset from the base or press TALK so the TALK indi- cator lights. Then press REDIAL.
The redial memory holds up to 80 dig- its, so you can redial long distance as well as local numbers.
Notes:
•We recommend you not use REDIAL to dial numbers that include a TONE entry (see “Using Tone Services on a Pulse Line”).
•The redial memory does not store a FLASH entry or any digits entered after you press FLASH.
For example, if you have call waiting, press FLASH to take an incoming call without disconnecting the current call. Press FLASH again to return to the first call.
Notes:
•If you do not have any special phone services, pressing FLASH might disconnect the current call.
•The redial memory does not store a FLASH entry or any digits entered after you press FLASH.
USING TONE SERVICES ON A PULSE LINE
Some special services, such as bank by phone, require tone signals. If you have pulse service, you can still use these special tone services by follow- ing these steps.
