7 Telephonedevices Services and External

Voice operations

Voice calls can be made either with an external telephone, by dialing manually, or by using Quick Dial numbers.

Tone or Pulse (Canada only)

If you have a Pulse dialing service, but need to send Tone signals (for example, for telephone banking), follow the instructions below:

a Pick up the handset of an external telephone or press Hook.

b Press # on the machine’s control panel. Any digits dialed after this will send tone signals.

When you hang up, the machine will return to the Pulse dialing service.
