Note: If three quick beeps sound,
you have made an error and the
number was not stored. Start
again from Step 2.
For each stored number, write the per-
son’s or company’s name next to the
appropriate location number on the
memory dialing card. We recommend
you use a pencil in case you want to
change the number later.
To erase a stored number, simply
store a new number in its place.
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 do so, press REDIAL at the appro-
priate place to enter a 4-second pause.
For a longer pause, press
REDIAL ad-
ditional times.
Dialing a Memory Number
To dial a number stored in memory,
press
TALK . When you hear a dial
tone, press MEMORY and enter the
memory location number for the num-
ber you want to dial.
Chain-Dialing Service
Numbers
When calling special services (such as
alternate long distance or bank by
phone), dial the service’s main number
first. Then, at the appropriate place in
the call, press
MEMORY then the num-
ber for the location where the addition-
al information is stored.
Testing Stored Emergency
Numbers
If you store an emergency service’s
number (police department, fire de-
partment, 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.
