Setting the Dial Mode

Sets the dial mode to tone or pulse. Most phone systems use tone dialing; the default setting is tone dialing. Set the dialing mode to match the dialing system used by your local phone service.

•If you are not sure of your dialing system, set the unit to tone dialing. Make a trial call. If the call connects, leave the setting as is; otherwise set the unit to pulse dialing.

•If your phone system requires pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones in certain situations during a call, you may switch over to tone dialing (refer to “Tone Dialing Switch-over” on page 34).

Ô NOTES Ô

•If the area code has already been stored in memory, the stored area code will be displayed. To change it, use MENU/DEL (or the DELETE soft key or DELETE on the base) and number keys to enter the new area code.

•If your calling area requires 10-digit dialing, do not program this option.
