Tone Dialing Switch-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. For example, entering your bank account number
after you have called your bank.

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 canceled and pulse dialing mode resumes.

• The tone feature only

applies when the dial
mode is set to pulse.

• This special number can

be stored in a memory
location. This is referred
to as Chain Dialing. (See
page 35.)
