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 follow- ing these steps.

1.Set TONE/PULSE on the base to

PULSE.

2.Dial the service’s main number.

3.When the service answers, press TONE/ on the keypad. Then dial the additional numbers. The phone sends these numbers as tone signals.

4.When you complete the call, place the handset on the base or press TALK to disconnect the call. The phone automatically resets to the pulse mode.

USING PAGE

The PAGE feature lets you send a page from the base to the handset, so you can page someone at the handset or locate it if you misplaced it.

When the handset is not in use and someone presses PAGE on the base, the handset beeps three sets of two beeps. The TALK light on the handset and the IN USE/CHARGE indicator on the base flash.

Note: The handset will not beep dur- ing a call.

MEMORY DIALING

You can store up to 10 numbers for two-button dialing. Each stored num- ber can be up to 16 digits long.

Notes:

Do not store a number with both pulse and tone entries in the same memory location. This could result in a wrong number being dialed.

If TONE/PULSE is set to PULSE and you want to use tone dialing for a memory number, store the tone entry (TONE/ ) in the next memory location.

To keep your accounts secure, we recommend you do NOT store your personal access code for services such as bank-by-phone in a memory location.
