Setting the Dialing Mode

If your phone system requires that you dial an access code (9, for example) before you dial an outside number, do not dial the access code.

The phone exits setting mode if a call or page is received, or if you press END.

If the battery power becomes too low, the dialing mode might reset to tone. If you are on a pulse line and cannot make a call, try setting the dialing mode to pulse.

Making and Receiving Calls

If the handset is too far from the base while the phone is in use, pressing END might not disconnect the phone. Hang up the handset on the base.

Selecting the Channel

If the handset is too far from the base, an error tone sounds and the channel might not change. Move closer to the base.

Using Redial

The redial memory holds up to 24 digits, so you can redial long- distance as well as local numbers.

The redial memory also holds pause entries (see “Entering a Pause” on Page 9).

The redial memory does not store a flash entry or any digits you press before FLASH (see “Using Flash” on Page 7).

Using Flash

If you do not have any special phone services, pressing FLASH might disconnect the current call.
