Connecting to a base station
To be able to use a certain base station, the handset must be subscribed and
connected to that base station. A handset can be subscribed to multiple base
stations, but can only be connected to one base station at a time. To connect to
a base station please refer to “Selecting another base station” on page 80.
Your base station can operate in the single-cell (stand alone) mode or in the
multi-cell mode. In the multi-cell mode, the handset can be used in a larger
area in which base stations work together as one unit. It is recommended that
you leave your base station in the single-cell mode unless otherwise specified.
This function is reserved for future use.

to confirm.
The cell mode is set.
If the base station is connected to a switchboard, you can use its functions in
the same way as with a conventional fixed telephone. The only difference is
the absence of a telephone cable. One example of this type of function is
transferring calls.
Telephoning using a switchboard
When you use a switchboard, it is sometimes necessary to wait for the dial
tone before dialling a number. If the whole number is to be entered and dis-
played prior to dialling, for example a stored number, then you must indicate
where in the number the handset should wait for the dial tone.
To include a pause (to wait for the dial tone) in a number, press
for one sec-
ond. A dash appears in the handset display to show you where you have set the
pause.
