FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Using Keys with the Telephone
- Use REDIAL / PAUSE for putting a pause between numbers.
- Use HOLD to put a call on hold. You can put down the handset without
disconnecting the call. You must pick up the fax handset to release the call from
HOLD.
- Use # to switch the dialing type from “pulse” to “tone”. This key is also used for
push-button services, such as those offered by banks, credit card companies, or
paging services.
On Hook Dialing
When you make a call using HOOK, you can listen to the other end of the line, but
they can’t hear you unless you pick up the handset. Also, if you press HOOK again
before you pick up the handset, the call will be disconnected.
