TELEPHONE FUNCTIONS

Automatic Radio Muting

If you are listening to the radio when the telephone rings it is not necessary to shut off the radio manually. The Automatic Radio Muting circuit will shut the radio off automatically as soon as you pick up the telephone handset. When you replace the handset in the cradle the radio comes on again.

Telephone RINGER Switch

Set this switch to the “HI” or “LO” position to adjust the electronic ringer volume level. If this switch is set to the “OFF” position the telephone will not ring when an incoming call is received.

TONE/PULSE Selector

Set this switch to TONE or PULSE to match the type of dialing service provided by your local phone company. If you do not know what type service you have set the switch to TONE and try to make a call. If the call does not go through you probably have Pulse dialing service. In that case set the switch to the PULSE position.

Speaker Volume Control

Set this VOL. switch to L (Low), M (Medium), or H (High) to adjust the telephone earpiece volume to the most comfortable level.

Making A Call

Lift the handset and listen for a dial tone. If the radio was playing it will shut off automatically. Dial the number on the keypad as usual. When finished, return the handset to the cradle. The radio will turn on automatically if necessary.
