Preparation

²The supplied battery pack should last for about a year. When it loses its ability to fully recharge, order a replacement battery pack from your local RadioShack store (see “Replacing the Handset Battery Pack” on Page 24).

n Preparation

SETTING THE DIALING MODE

Set the dialing mode for the type of service you have. If you are not sure which type you have, once the battery pack is fully charged, do this test.

1Lift the handset, then press PHONE and listen for

the dial tone.

2 Press any number other than 0.

Note: If your phone sys- tem 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. Since the phone is preset to touch-tone service, you do not have to make any change to the dialing mode.

If the dial tone continues, you have pulse service. Press

PHONE # # # 3.

If your phone is set for pulse service and you want to change the dialing mode to touch-tone service, press PHONE # # # 8.
