ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
Call Waiting
While you are on a call, you will hear
an alert signal, warning that a second
caller is trying to reach you. CALL
WAITING is a subscription service,
available from most local telephone
service providers. Contact your provider
for details.
If you subscribe to this service linked
with CALLER ID (CID), the name and/
or phone number of the second caller
can be displayed on the LCD
immediately after hearing the CALL
WAITING alert. For more details, see
CID-CALLER ID.
Switching calls using FLASH
To switch over to the new call,
press the PHONE key; the first
call is put on hold.
To switch back to the first call, press
the PHONE key again.
Temporary Tone
If you have rotary (dial-pulse) telephone
service (TONE/PULSE switch is set to
PULSE), this feature allows you to
temporarily switch to TONE dialing for
such purposes as remote access to
Answering System, bank-by-phone
services, use of calling cards and other
special services.
First, dial the call normally. Then
activate the Temporary Tone feature
by pressing TONE . You can then
press the numbers or symbols you
need, and your phone will send the
proper signals.
To end the call, press OFF or place
the Handset back in the Base. The
phone will automatically go back to
rotary (dial-pulse) service.

The Handset ringer is capable of four
different types of ringer tones. The
