•If you have not pressed any key for 30 seconds, the phone returns to the standby mode.

Chain Dialing

The memory locations in the handset are not limited to phone numbers. You can also store a group of numbers (up to 20 digits), that you need to enter once your call connects. This is referred to as Chain Dialing.

An example of this is a bank account number. Store a special number in the phonebook location (refer to “Storing Phone Numbers, Names, Distinctive Rings and Speed Dial” on page 37). Once you have called your bank, and when you are prompted to enter the account number, just as you do when viewing the phonebook location, view the special number, then press the DIAL soft key.
