SETTING THE DIALING MODE

Set DIAL MODE on the back of the base for the type of service you have (tone or pulse). If you are not sure which type you have, once the battery pack is fully charged, do this test.

1. Set DIAL MODE to T (tone).

2.Press LINE 1 on the base. The line 1 indicator lights.

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 number either.

If the dial tone stops, that line has tone service.

If the dial tone continues, that line has pulse service.

4.Press LINE 1 to release the line, then repeat the test for Line 2.

If you have tone service on both lines, leave DIAL MODE set to T (tone).

If you have pulse service on either line, set DIAL MODE to P (pulse).

SETTING THE RINGERS’ VOLUME

At any time except during a call, press t or s to set the handset’s ringer volume. The phone rings at the selected volume.

To set the base’s ringer volume, set RING VOL on the back of the base to OFF, LO, or HI.
