Special Dialing Features
Dialing Long Phone
Numbers
You can store numbers longer than 16 digits in different
lines of an entry. Press Dial when the first part of the
number is highlighted. Wait for dialing to stop.
Highlight the other line and press Dial.
Entering a Dialing
Delay
You can program a pause/delay into a directory number
for use with certain banking and long-distance services,
or to obtain an outside line when using a business
telephone system. To insert a dialing delay in a phone
number you are storing, press ÒPÓ or a ÒWÓ on the
alpha key pad.
Each time you press ÒPÓ, a delay of a few seconds
occurs in the dialing sequence. ÒWÓ inserts a pause
of 30 seconds. While the number is dialing, pressing
Dial during the Wait will cause the Wait to end.
Storing a Temporary
Tone
If you have selected the pulse dialing mode, you may
store the TONE signal as part of the number. For
example, you may store a dialing sequence that includes
the phone number you will dial in pulse mode followed
by the TONE signal and any additional number you
will dial in tone mode.
As you store the dialing sequence in the phone,
press TONE, on the dial pad, at the appropriate point in
the sequence.
Storing a Switchhook
Flash
You can use the switchhhook flash to activate custom-
calling services, such as call waiting or 3-way calling.
You may store a switchhook flash as part of a custom-
calling dialing sequence. Press FLASH, on the dial
pad, at the appropriate point in the sequence. If you
program a FLASH into a directory number and the
phone doesnÕt wait long enough for dial tone before
dialing, enter a pause after the FLASH. To enter a
pause, press ÒPÓ on the alpha
key pad.
Storing Custom Calling
Codes
You can use a directory entry for the codes that activate
a custom calling service. Follow the steps to ÒAdding
a NameÓ on page 28. Instead of typing a phone number,
enter the Custom Calling code.
