a caller on hold if a new call comes in.

conversation.
USING TONE SERVICES

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 following these
steps.

P
.
2. Dial the service’s main number.
3. When the service answers, press
. Q appears. Any additional num-
bers you dial are sent as tone sig-
nals.
4. After you complete the call, return
the handset to the base or press
TALK.
The phone automatically re-
sets to pulse dialing.
USING PAGE/INTERCOM
You can use the ET-521 as a two-way
pager and intercom between the base
and the handset. This is useful if the
handset is away from the base and you
want to locate it, or if you want to have a
conversation between the handset and
the base.
To page the person who has the handset
or to locate the handset when the phone
is not in use, press
PAGE
on the base.
The handset beeps three times and
Paging
you
appears. If you want the
handset to beep for a longer time, hold
down
PAGE
for about 3 seconds. The
handset beeps for 3 minutes.
