USING PRIVACY
Hold down PRIVACY to talk to someone
else in the room without the person on the
other end of the phone line hearing your
conversation. You can still hear the per-
son on the other end of the phone line.
Release PRIVACY to resume your phone
conversation.
USING FLASH
FLASH provides the electronic equivalent
of a switchhook signal for special phone
services such as Call Waiting.
For example, if you have Call Waiting,
you can put your current call on hold and
answer a second call by pressing
FLASH .
Press FLASH again to alternate between
the two calls.
Notes:
• The redial memory does not store the
FLASH entry or the digits you press
after FLASH .
• If you do not have any special phone
services, pressing FLASH might dis-
connect your current call.
USING TONE SERVICES ON
A PULSE LINE
Some special phone services, such as
bank-by-phone, require tone signals. If
you have pulse service, you can still use
these special tone services.
1. Dial the service’s main number.
2. Press TONE/ at the point where
tone signals are required, then dial
the additional numbers. The phone
sends these numbers as tone signals.
3. The phone automatically resets to the
pulse mode when you hang up.
