Dial Mode

Slide TONE/PULSE to the type of dialing service you have. If

you are not sure which type you have, do this simple test:

1. Slide TONE/PULSE to TONE. Lift the handset and listen for

a dial tone.

2. Press any number except 0. (If your setup requires that you

dial an access code, usually 9, do not press the access code.)

• If the dial tone stops, you have touchtone service. Keep

the switch on TONE.

• If the dial tone continues, you have pulse service. Set the

switch to PULSE.

Using Special Tone Services

Some computer services require touchtone signals for

communications. If you have pulse service, you can temporarily

switch to tone signals by following these steps.

1. Connect to the special service using pulse dialing.
2. When the special service answers, press

*

to switch to tone

dialing.

3. When you hang up, the setting changes back to PULSE.
