T ONE D IALING S WITCH OVER
Some telephone companies use equipment
that requires pulse dialing (sometimes
referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to
enter tone dialing digits, you can switch over
to tone dialing during the call. This feature is
useful when you need tone dialing to use
automated systems, for example, entering
your bank account number after you have
called your bank.
Ô
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing
mode. Once your call connects, press
/tone/< . Enter the desired number. These
digits will be sent as tone dialing. Once the
call ends, the tone mode is cancelled and
pulse dialing mode resumes.
T RAVELLING O UT - OF -R ANGE
During a call, if you move your handset too
far from your base unit, noise may increase.
If you pass the range limits of the base unit,
you will hear a beep and see
Out of
Range on the display, and then the handset
returns to standby mode. You may return
back to the call if you move your handset
within the range limits of the base and press
TALK/FLASH or SPEAKER within 30
seconds.
