Radio Shack 43-3578 Using Flash, Muting the Ringer, Using Tone Services on a Pulse Line

Operation

USING FLASH

TALK/FLASH performs the electronic equivalent of a switchhook operation for special services, such as Call Waiting. For example, if you have Call Waiting, press TALK/FLASH to answer an incoming call without disconnecting the current call. Press TALK/FLASH again to return to the first call.

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

MUTING THE RINGER

To temporarily mute the ringer’s tone when you receive a call with the handset off the base, press END. Ringer mute automatically turns off when you receive another call.

USING TONE SERVICES ON A PULSE LINE

Some special services require tone signals (such as bank-by-phone). If you have pulse dialing, you can still use these special tone services.

Dial the service’s main number. When the service answers, press ∗/TONE/ . Any additional numbers you dial are sent as tone signals. The phone’s dial mode resets to pulse when you make or receive a call.
