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. For example, entering your bank account number after you
have called your bank.
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once your call
connects, press
/tone. Enter the desired number. These digits will
be sent as tone dialing. Once the call ends, the tone mode is canceled
and pulse dialing mode resumes.
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 33.)

Traveling Out-of-Range
During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise
increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, your call will terminate within
30 seconds. To avoid your call being terminated, quickly move your handset back in
range.
Selecting a Different Channel
If you encounter interference while using your phone, you can manually change the
phones channel for clear operation. This function works only when the phone is in use.
Press
select/ch. Scanning appears on the display, indicating the phone is changing
to another channel. For more information on interference, refer to Radio Interference
on page 50.
