USING PAUSE
In some telephone systems, you must
dial an access code (

you can dial an outside number. You
can enter a pause after the access
code to allow the outside line time to
connect.

ad-

press

stores up to 32 digits so you can
quickly redial local as well as long-

again to alternate between the
two calls.
