MEMORY DIALING
You can store up to 10 numbers in memory,
then dial a stored number by pressing
MEM
and a one-digit memory location number.
Also, with the press of one button (

M3 ), you can dial a number that is stored in
one of the first three memory locations.
Each number you store can be up to 16
digits long.
Use the supplied memory directory stickers
to record your stored numbers. Peel the
backing from each sticker and attach them to
the phone.
Storing a Number in Memory
1. Lift the handset and press MEM . The
TALK/BATT indicator blinks.

entries (see “Using Tone Services on a
Pulse Line” on Page 11 and “Entering a
Pause”).
3. Press MEM again, then enter the
memory location number ( 0 – 9 ) where
you want to store the number.
The phone beeps once to indicate that the
number is stored.
Notes:
• The phone beeps and exits the
programming mode if you wait more
than 20 seconds between each key
press.
• Each tone or pause entry uses one digit
of memory.
• If you try to enter more than 16 digits,
the phone beeps and exits the
programming mode. Start over at Step 1
and enter no more than 16 digits in Step

To replace a stored number, simply store a
new number in its place. To clear a stored
number, lift the handset (if the TALK/BATT
indicator lights, press

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 do so, press
PAUSE . Each press
enters a 2-second pause. For a longer
pause, press
PAUSE additional times.
Dialing a Memory Number

handset or press
TALK . The TALK/BATT

simply press
MEM and enter the memory
location number for the number you want to
dial.
Or, to dial a number stored in the memory
location 1, 2, or 3, just press
M1 , M2 , or M3 .
You need not press TALK when you use
these buttons.
