Entering a Pause in a Memory Number

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. If your phone is connected to one of these systems, you might want to enter a pause at the appropriate point when you store a phone number in memory.

When storing a number, press PAUSE to enter a 3-second pause. For a long- er pause, press PAUSE again (each press enters a 3-second pause).

Dialing a Stored Number

Follow these steps to dial a number stored in memory.

Lift the handset from the cradle and press TALK so the IN USE indicator lights.

When you hear a dial tone, press MEMORY and then press the memory location number where the phone number is stored. The phone dials the stored number.

Chain Dialing Service

Numbers

When calling special services (such as alternate long distance or bank by phone), dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press MEMORY and the num- ber for the location where the addition- al information is stored.

Testing Stored Emergency Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s number (police department, fire de- partment, 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.
