A QUICK LOOK AT THE HANDSET

REDIAL — To quickly dial any of the last three numbers dialed, lift the handset and repeatedly press REDIAL until the desired number appears on the display, then press TALK.

Notes:

•The redial memory also holds pause entries (see “Entering a Pause” on Page 18).

TALK — To make a call, lift the handset and press TALK. JWba and the current volume setting appear on the handset’s display, and the CHARGE/IN USE indica- tor on the base lights. Dial the number. The number displays on the handset as you dial, then (after a few seconds) the call’s elapsed time displays.

Note: You can also dial the num- ber before you press TALK. If you make a mistake, repeatedly press DELETE/CH to erase the wrong entry, then enter the cor- rect number. You can also hold down DELETE/CH for more than one second to delete the

entire number.

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.
