Tone Dialing Switch-over
Some telephone companies use equipment that requires pulse
dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need
to enter tone dialing digits, you can switch-over to tone
dialing during the call. This feature is useful when you need
tone dialing to use automated systems, for example, entering
your bank account number after you have called your bank.
Initially make your call with pulse dialing mode. Once your call
connects, press
*
/tone/
on the handset (or
*
/tone
on the
base). Enter the desired number. These digits will be sent as
tone dialing. Once the call ends, tone mode is canceled and
pulse dialing mode resumes.
Traveling Out-of-Range
During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise may
increase. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, you will hear a beep and see
Out of
Range
on the display, and then the handset returns to standby mode. You may return to the
call if you move your handset within the range limits of the base and press
talk/flash
or
speaker
within 30 seconds.
•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).
