note

•The tone feature only applies when the dial mode is set to pulse.

•This special number can be stored in a memory location. This is referred to as Chain Dialing (see page 42).

Tone Dialing Switch-over

Some telephone companies use equipment that requires pulse dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to enter tone dialing digits, you can switch to tone dialing during the call. This feature is useful when you need tone dialing to use automated systems. For example, you can call your bank's telephone teller system, then switch over to tone dialing to enter your bank account number and make menu selections.

Initially make your call with pulse dialing mode. Once your call connects, press */tone/< on the handset or base to enter tone dialing mode. Any digits entered will be sent in tone dialing mode. Once the call ends, tone mode is canceled, and pulse dialing mode resumes.

Traveling Out of Range

During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise may increase. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, you will hear a beep and see Out of Range on the display, and then the handset returns to standby mode. You may return to the call if you move your handset within the range limits of the base and press talk/flash or speaker within 30 seconds.
