• TOUCH TONES

Your phone can generate various sounds, called touch tones, when the
keys are pressed. These are also known as DTMF tones.

Touch tones can be used for many automated, over-the-phone services
such as checking bank balances, airline arrival and departure times, and
using voice mailbox options. Touch tones can be sent only during an
active voice call.

Storing touch tone strings

Store touch tone strings the same way you store phone numbers
(see“Storing a name and number” on page 75).

You can store a whole digit sequence in your phone book and send it as
touch tones for frequently used strings of numbers.

Sending a touch tone string

1

Make sure Menu 4-2-3-1 (Settings - Phone settings - Touch tones -
Manual touch tones
) is not set to Off.

2

During a call, press Options.

3

Scroll to Touch tones and press OK.

4

Enter a touch tone string or recall a string from the phone book and
press OK.

Caution: Be careful when you send confidential information over the air

(from your phone) when using DTMF tones in analog mode.

Storing touch tone strings with phone numbers

Enter the phone number (for example, your office voice mailbox
number).

2

Press the Star key

three times (p for pause) or four times (w for

wait).

Enter the touch tone string (for example, the voice mailbox password).
