D. Choose the dialing mode

Most phone systems use tone dialing, which sends DTMF tones through the phone lines. However, some phone systems still use pulse dialing such as in rural areas. The default setting is tone dialing. Depending on your dialing system, set the mode as follows:

Base Setting only

1	Press and hold flash/set until you hear a confirmation tone.
2	To set the dial mode for pulse dialing, press				# . Or to set the dial
	mode for tone dialing, press			. A confirmation tone sounds to

	indicate the setting is complete.

•If you are not sure of your dialing system, set for tone dialing. Make a trial call. If the call connects, leave the setting as is, otherwise set for pulse dialing.

•If your phone system requires pulse dialing and you need to send the DTMF tones for certain situations during a call, you may “switch-over” to tone dialing (refer to “Tone Dialing Switch-over” on page 31).

note

Make sure your battery pack is fully charged before choosing the dialing mode.
