CALLING & ANSWERING (1-LINE MODE)

Using CapTel in an Office, Hotel or Nursing Home Setting or with Call-waiting

NOTE: If you need to dial a number for an outside line and/or you have call-waiting, see page 20 and 21 before placing your first call. For additional calling instructions and tips, see Helpful Tips on page 41.

Placing a Call with Captions

Using the CapTel is easy — just pick up the handset and dial:

1.Verify that the Caption feature is on. The red light over the CAPTION button should be lit. If the light is not on, turn on the feature by pressing the CAPTION button before dialing your call.

2.Pick up the handset. Dial the phone number of the person you are calling (example: 555-1234).

Remember to dial a 1 + area code if the number is long distance.

3.After a few seconds you will see

a message letting you know that the Captioning Service is being connected to your CapTel phone. Once connected, the Captioning Service dials the person you are calling.

4.You may begin speaking as soon

as you hear the other person answer or see the Signal Meter flicker (see Knowing What is Happening on the Line on page 14).

NOTE: If the Caption feature is turned off when you dial, the Captioning Service will not be connected and you will not receive captions. You cannot turn on captions manually in the middle of a call with 1-Line CapTel. If you would like captions, hang up, turn on the Caption feature, and place the call again.
