The redial memory for each keypad is separate. You cannot redial a number you dialed on the handset’s keypad using REDIAL on the base’s keypad, and vice versa.

The redial memory holds up to 32 digits, so you can redial long-dis- tance as well as local numbers.

The redial memory also holds pause entries. See “Entering a Pause” on Page 20.

USING FLASH

FLASH performs the electronic equiva- lent of a switchhook operation for spe- cial 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.

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

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 by following these steps.

1.Be sure DIAL MODE is set to P.

2.Dial the service’s main number.

3.When the service answers, press

TONE () on the handset (TONE on the base). Any additional numbers you dial are sent as tone signals.

4.When you hang up, the phone auto- matically resets to pulse dialing.

USING PAGE/INTERCOM

You can use the ET-1118 as a two-way pager and intercom between the base and the handset. This is useful if the handset is away from the base and you want to locate it, or if you want to have a conversation between someone with the handset and someone at the base.
