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/ t . 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 44).

Traveling Out-of-Range
During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise
increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, you will hear a beep and “Out
of Range” appears, then the handset returns to the 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.
Clarity Booster
If you encounter interference while using your phone, you can manually improve the
sound quality for clear operation. This works only when the phone is in use.
1) Press the MENU soft key.
2) Select “Booster On”, then press the OK soft key.
“Clarity Booster” appears in the display.
To turn Off the Clarity Booster, press the MENU soft key,
select “Booster Off”, then press the OK soft key again.
