Changing from Tone to Pulse Dialing
Phones can communicate with the telephone network in two different
ways: tone (DTMF) or pulse dialing. If you know your phone company
uses pulse dialing or you can't make your test call, follow these steps:
With the phone in standby, press
MENU/SELECT
on a cordless
handset. (You must use a cordless handset for this procedure.)
Use

Pulse

confirmation tone. Try making another test call.
If you use pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones during a
call (if you're using an automated response system, for example),
press to temporarily switch to tone dialing. When the call ends, the
phone automatically returns to pulse dialing mode.
