SETTING THE DIALING MODE

Set P∙ ∙T on the back of the base for the type of service you have. If you are not sure which type you have, do this test.

1. Set P∙ ∙T to T (tone).

2.Lift the handset and listen for a dial tone.

3.Press any number other than 0.

Note: 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.

If the dial tone stops, you have touch-tone service. Leave P∙ ∙T set to T.

If the dial tone continues, you have pulse service. Set P∙ ∙T to P (pulse).

SETTING THE RINGER TONE AND VOLUME

You can select one of four different ringer/tone volume settings when the phone is not in use.

1.Lift the handset. If you hear a dial tone, press TALK to turn it off.

2.Press RINGER. The phone sounds the current ringer tone and vol- ume.

3.Repeatedly press RINGER until you hear the desired ringer tone and volume.

Each time you press RINGER, the ringer changes in the following order:

High-volume “chirping”

Low-volume “chirping”

High-volume “warbling”

Low-volume “warbling”
