D.Choose the dialing mode
Most phone systems use tone dialing which sends DTMF tones through the phone lines. However some
phone systems still use pulse dialing such as in rural areas. The default setting is tone dialing.
Depending on your dialing system, set the mode as follows:
1) Press and hold flash until you hear a confirmation tone.
2) To set the dial mode for pulse dialing, press #. Or to set the dial mode for tone dialing, press
*
/tone.
A confirmation tone sounds to indicate the setting is complete.
• if you are not sure of your dialing system, set for tone dialing. Make a trial call. If the call connects,
leave the setting as is, otherwise set for pulse dialing.
• If your phone dialing system requires pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones for certain
situations during a call, you may “switch-over” to tone dialing. (Refer to “Tone Dialing Switch-over”).
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack is fully charged before choosing the dial mode.
