Telephone Operation

SETTING THE PULSE/TONE SWITCH

Set PULSE/TONE on the handset for the type of service you
have. If you are not sure which type you have, do this test:
Lift the handset and set PULSE/TONE to TONE. When you hear
the dial tone, press any number other than 0.
Notes:
If your phone system requires that you dial an access code
(9, for example) before you dial an outside number, do not
press the access code either.
# does not function when PULSE/TONE is set to PULSE.
If the dial tone stops, you have touch-tone service. Leave
PULSE/TONE set to TONE.
If the dial tone continues, you have pulse service. Set PULSE/
TONE to PULSE.

SETTING THE RINGER

To turn off the telephone’s ringer, set RINGER to OFF. You can
still make outgoing calls and, if you hear an extension phone
ring, you can still answer calls. To turn on the telephone’s ring-
er, set RINGER to HIGH or LOW for high or low ringer volume.
