SETTING THE RINGER SWITCH

To set the volume of the telephone’s ringer, set the ringer switch on the back of the answering system to LO or HI.

To turn off the telephone’s ringer, set the ringer switch to OFF. You can still make out-going calls. If you hear an extension phone ring, you can still an- swer calls.

Illust.

SETTING THE DIALING MODE

Set P/T for the type of service you have — P for pulse (rotary) or T for tone. If you are not sure which type you have, do this test once you con- nect the phone to power.

1. Set P/T to T.

Illust.

2.Pick up the handset and listen for a dial tone.

3.Press any number other than 0. If the dial tone stops, you have touch-tone service. If the dial tone continues, you have pulse ser- vice. Set P/T to P.

Notes:

The # button does not function when P/T is set to P.

If you have pulse service and want to use a special service that requires tone signals (such as bank-by-phone), see “Using Tone Services with a Pulse Line” on Page 15.
