Choosing Tone or Pulse Dialing
Select the type of dialing that you desire or that your telephone system requires by setting
the TONE/PULSE switch.
TONE - The set will operate using tone dialing.
PULSE - The set will dial using rotary dial type pulses (clicking sounds).
If you are not sure of your dialing system, make a trial call with the switch set to TONE. If the
call connects, leave the switch as it is; otherwise, set it to PULSE.
NOTE: To use caller ID service, you will probably need TONE dialing.
Even when your phone is set to pulse service, this phone can be switched to temporary
tone for access to services that require tone signaling including Telephone Banking. Just
press the TONE button after dialing in pulse and your buttons can now be used for
tone signaling for this call only.
TO RESET THE PHONE
In the rare case of abnormal telephone line interference, your phone may not work properly
and may need to be reset. Make sure the phone is hung up, use a pointed object like a
straightened paper clip and stick it into the small hole at the bottom of the phone (marked
RESET) for 2 seconds. The display will become blank for about one second, then resume
to the previous display. Note you do not need to reprogram the memory numbers you
stored.
Your phone will now go to the Time and Date mode, press the UP and DOWN buttons to get
to the correct number and the DELETE button to accept.
You do not have to set up the Time and Date because the telephone company will auto-
matically update this with your Caller ID when your phone rings (twice or more). To get back
to the standby mode (for dialing), press the DELETE button until the normal display shows
(see below for example):
(Example: 10:53 a.m. On June 18th)
