Using The Pause Feature For Dialing

The “R/P” button is used to insert a temporary pause during a dialing sequence. Program- ming in a pause will cause the phone to wait two (2) seconds before dialing additional numbers. This feature may be used when it is necessary to dial an access code (9, for example) and wait for a second dial tone before you can dial an outside number. Press the “R/P” button at the required point during the memory storage process to program a pause.

When dialing an international number for example (i.e. 011-555-55-555-5555), some tele- phone company systems will not register the entire number entry without a pause between the prefix numbers. You may have to dial 011- “R/P” button, dial 555- “R/P” button. This allows adequate timing for the phone number to register with the telephone company’s system and complete the call.

Using Line Transfer Feature

If extra handsets are set to the base unit:

1.During a phone conversation, press the “SEL” button and the handset number you wish to transfer to. The line will be on HOLD and will make an audio sound on the other handset.

2.

On the other handset you can press

to answer the call automatically after

 

receiving the transfer ring.

 

3.

Press the

button to return the connection back if the other handset user

does not want to take the call during the transfer ring.

4.If the two handsets do not respond within 60 seconds, the line will disconnect automatically.

Using The Page / Handset Location Feature

Send a page signal from the base to the handset or to locate the handset.

1.Press the /PAGE button located on the base of the telephone to page the handset.

2.Press the /PAGE button once more to cancel the paging feature.

3.If you do not press the /PAGE button again, the handset will ring for about 30 seconds then end the paging automatically.

Using The Headset Feature

You can use this telephone hands-free when you connect a 2.5mm headset (purchased separately). To connect, plug the headset into the HEADSET JACK at the bottom of the handset.

While in the Headset Mode, the volume of the headset is controlled by the telephone and the handset’s earpiece and microphone are disconnected. Follow the procedures discussed in ANSWERING A CALL and PLACING A CALL (See pages #17 & 18) when you receive and place a call.
