TONE DIALING
SWITCH-OVER
If your telephone company requires pulse
dialing, you can switchover to tone dialing
after the call connects. This feature is useful
when you need tone dialing to use any
automated menu systems, such as
telephone bank tellers, telephone
prescription refills, customer support
menus, etc. Ô
If your phone is set to pulse dialing mode,
make your call normally. Once your call
connects, press the
*
/TONE/< key. Any
digits you enter from then on will be sent as
tone digits. When this particular call ends,
the phone automatically returns to pulse
dialing mode.
Ô NOTES Ô
The tone feature only
applies when the dial
mode is set to pulse.
This special number can
be stored in a memory
location. This is referred
to as Chain Dialing (see
page 38).
