TEL LINE
jack on the base to a
standard telephone wall jack.
Test the Connecon
Pick up the handset from the cradle and press
Talk
. You should
hear a dial tone, and the display should say Talk.
If you don't hear a dial tone or the display says Check Tel Line, try
checking the connection between the base and the phone jack.
Make a quick test call. (Press
End

If you keep hearing a dial tone, try changing to pulse dialing mode.
If there is a lot of noise, see page 21 for tips on avoiding
interference.
Test all your handsets the same way. If you can't get a dial tone, try
moving the handset closer to the base.
Changing from Tone to Pulse Dialing
Your phone communicates with the telephone network in two ways:
tone dialing or pulse dialing. Most telephone companies use tone
dialing. If your phone company uses pulse dialing, you will need to
change your phone’s dial mode.
From a handset, open the menu and select Global Setup. (See page
8 for details on using the menu.)
Select Dial Mode, then select Pulse. The phone sounds a
confirmation tone.
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.
