Use a flat-blade screwdriver to lift up the
plastic cover from the telephone number
index card. For each stored number,

Entering a Pause

In some telephone systems, you must
dial an access code (

9

, for example) and

wait for a second dial tone before you
can dial an outside number. You can
store the access code with the phone
number. However, you must also store a
pause after the access code to allow the
outside line time to connect. To enter a
2-second pause, press

PAUSE

longer pause, press

additional

times.

Note: You must enter at least one digit
before you can store a pause.

Dialing Stored Numbers

location button.

Chain-Dialing Service Numbers

For quick recall of numbers for special
services (such as alternate long distance
or bank by phone), store each group of
numbers in its own memory location.

To use the stored special service infor-
mation, dial the service’s main number
first. Then, at the appropriate place in the
call, press

LOWER

(if necessary) then

the button for the location where the ad-
ditional information is stored.

Testing Stored Emergency
Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s
number (police department, fire depart-
ment, ambulance) and you choose to
test the stored number, make the test
call during the late evening or early
morning hours to avoid peak demand pe-
riods. Also, remain on the line to explain
the reason for your call.
