4. Press MEM , then enter the memory
location number ( 0 – 9 ). A long beep
confirms that the number is stored.
Note: If the phone sounds five quick
beeps, you have made an entry
error, and the number was not
stored. Start again from Step 2.
To replace a stored number, simply store
a new number in its place.
To erase a stored number, press MEM
twice, then press the number for the
memory location (
0 – 9 ) you want to clear.
A long beep sounds.
Note: You cannot store a number at the
base while the handset is in use.
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 should also store
a pause after the access code to allow
the outside line time to connect.
To enter a 2-second pause, press PAUSE
on the handset or base. You can add
more pause entries for a longer pause.
Dialing a Memory Number
To dial a number stored in the handset’s
memory, lift the handset and press either
line button. When you hear a dial tone,
press
MEM and enter the memory loca-
tion number for the number you want to
dial.
To dial a number stored in the base’s
memory, press either line button. When
you hear a dial tone, press
MEM and en-
ter the memory location number for the
number you want to dial.
Chain-Dialing Service Numbers
For quick recall of numbers for special
services (such as bank by phone), store
each group of numbers in its own mem-
ory location.
Dial the service’s main number first.
Then, at the appropriate place in the
call, press
MEM and the number for the
location where the additional 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
periods. Also, remain on the line to ex-
plain the reason for your call.
