TEMPORARY TONE
If you have pulse (rotary) service, and want to access customer calling
services that require tone dialing (such as getting information from a local
bank), you can use this feature.
• Press the TONE button ( * ) after you have connected to the customer
calling service to enable tone dialing.
When you hang up, the phone automatically resumes pulse dialing.
TIP: Temporary Tone can also be used while storing numbers in memory by
pressing TONE ( * ) at the necessary point in the storage sequence.
