Useful

When Talking Keypad is turned on, the phone number you dialed is not announced correctly.

If you dial a phone number quickly, the handset and base unit may not announce the dialed phone number correctly. For best results, dial each digit one at a time, and wait for the unit to announce each digit before dialing the next digit.
