When dialing a number, if you
press a number and 3 short beeps
sound, you are out of the base’s
range, the battery is too low, or
there is too much interference on
the line. Move the handset closer
to the base or recharge the bat-
tery, if necessary.
USING REDIAL
To quickly redial the last number di-
aled, simply lift the handset from the
base or press
TALK
so the TALK indi-
cator lights. Then press
REDIAL
.
The redial memory holds up to 80 dig-
its, so you can redial long distance as
well as local numbers.
Notes:
We recommend you not use
REDIAL
to dial numbers that
include a
TONE
entry (see “Using
Tone Services on a Pulse Line”).
The redial memory does not store
a
FLASH
entry or any digits
entered after you press
FLASH
.
USING FLASH
Use
FLASH
on the handset to send the
electronic equivalent of a switchhook
press for special services, such as call
waiting.
For example, if you have call waiting,
press
FLASH
to take an incoming call
without disconnecting the current call.
Press
FLASH
again to return to the first
call.
Notes:
If you do not have any special
phone services, pressing
FLASH
might disconnect the current call.
The redial memory does not store
a
FLASH
entry or any digits
entered after you press
FLASH
.
USING TONE SERVICES
ON A PULSE LINE
Some special services, such as bank
by phone, require tone signals. If you
have pulse service, you can still use
these special tone services by follow-
ing these steps.
