Temporary Tone

If you have rotary (dial-pulse) telephone service (TONE/PULSE switch is set to PULSE), this feature allows you to temporarily switch to TONE dialing for such purposes as remote access to Answering System, bank-by-phone services, use of calling cards and other special services.

First, dial the call normally. Then activate the Temporary Tone feature by pressing * TONE . You can then press the numbers or symbols you need, and your phone will send the proper signals.

To end the call, press OFF or place the Handset back in the Base. The phone will automatically go back to rotary (dial-pulse) service.
