ˆTelephone Operation

MAKING AND RECEIVING CALLS

To make a call, lift the handset then press TALK. The TALK/BATT indicator on the handset and CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the base light. Dial the number.

To answer a call, simply lift the handset from the base. If the handset is away from the base, press any key.

To end a call, place the handset on the base or press TALK.

USING FLASH

FLASH performs the electronic equivalent of a switchhook operation for special services, such as Call Waiting.

For example, if you have Call Waiting, press FLASH to answer an incoming call without disconnecting the current call. Press FLASH again to return to the first call.

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

SELECTING THE CHANNEL

The phone scans 40 channels (frequency pairs used between the base and the handset) and automatically selects a clear channel each time you make or receive a call.

If you hear other conversations or excessive noise during a call, press CH to select a different channel. The TALK/BATT indicator blinks, and the handset beeps, followed by a brief pause as your phone searches for a clear channel.

If the handset is too far from the base, the channel might not change. Move closer to the base and try again.

SETTING THE HANDSET VOLUME

To change the volume you hear through the handset, press VOLUME during a call. The handset volume has three levels, low, medium, and high.

USING REDIAL

To quickly dial the last number dialed, lift the handset and press REDIAL.

Notes:

•The redial memory holds up to 32 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 12).

USING TONE SERVICES ON A PULSE LINE

Some special services, such as bank-by- phone, require tone signals. If you have pulse service, 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.

When you hang up, the phone automatically resets to pulse dialing.
