Entering a Pause

In some telephone systems, you must dial an access code (9, for example) and wait for a second dial tone before you can dial an outside number. You can store the access code with the phone number. However, you should also store a pause after the access code to allow the outside line time to connect. To en- ter a 2-second pause, press REDIAL. For a longer pause, press REDIAL addi- tional times.

Dialing a Memory Number

To dial a number assigned to a speed dial button, simply press the button (M1M3) for the number you want to dial. (You do not need to press TALK first.)

To dial a number stored in a standard memory location, press TALK. When you hear a dial tone, press MEM and enter the two-digit memory location number for the number you want to dial.

Note: If you select an invalid memory lo- cation (for example 3 instead of 03), the phone sounds an error tone. Press MEM again and re-enter the memory location number.

Chain-Dialing Service Numbers

For quick recall of numbers for special services (such as alternate long dis- tance or bank-by-phone), store each group of numbers in its own memory lo- cation.

Dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press the memory location button (M1M3), or press MEM and enter the memory location number (0120) for the stored information.

Testing Stored Emergency Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s number (police department, fire depart- ment, ambulance) and you choose to test the stored number, make the test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid peak demand periods. Also, remain on the line to ex- plain the reason for your call.

USING A HEADSET

You can talk with hands-free conve- nience using an optional headset that has a 3/32-inch (2.5-mm) plug. Contact your local RadioShack store for a suit- able headset.

To connect the headset, open the rub- ber cover marked on the side of the handset, then insert the headset’s plug into the jack.

Notes:

Connecting a headset disconnects the handset’s earpiece and micro- phone.

or on the handset also controls the connected headset’s volume.
