USING TONE SERVICES
ON A PULSE LINE

Some special services, such as bank
by phone, require tone signals. If you
have pulse service, you can still use
these special tone services by follow-
ing these steps.

1. Set

TONE/PULSE

on the base to

PULSE

.

2. Dial the service’s main number.

3. When the service answers, press

TONE/

on the keypad. Then dial

the additional numbers. The
phone sends these numbers as
tone signals.

4. When you complete the call, place

the handset on the base or press

TALK

to disconnect the call. The

phone automatically resets to the
pulse mode.

USING PAGE

The

PAGE

feature lets you send a

page from the base to the handset, so
you can page someone at the handset
or locate it if you misplaced it.

When the handset is not in use and
someone presses

PAGE

on the base,

the handset beeps three sets of two
beeps. The

TALK

light on the handset

and the IN USE/CHARGE indicator on
the base flash.

Note: The handset will not beep dur-
ing a call.

MEMORY DIALING

You can store up to 10 numbers for
two-button dialing. Each stored num-
ber can be up to 16 digits long.

Notes:

• Do not store a number with both

pulse and tone entries in the same
memory location. This could result
in a wrong number being dialed.

• If

TONE/PULSE

is set to

PULSE

and you want to use tone dialing
for a memory number, store the
tone entry (

TONE/

) in the next

memory location.

• To keep your accounts secure, we

recommend you do NOT store
your personal access code for
services such as bank-by-phone
in a memory location.
