If there is a dash in a number, the handset waits a while for the dial tone. If
you hear the dial tone, the handset continues dialling without waiting for the
full dial tone pause period.
Some telephone networks use pulses when dialling a number. If your cordless
phone is set to pulse dialling, you can switch to tone dialling if required, for
example to control a teleservice.
To switch the handset to tone dialling during a call:
Route:
DialMode » GoToDTMF
•
Select
GoToDTMF
and press
Y E S
.
The handset now uses tone dialling.
When you hang up, the handset goes back to pulse dialling. The pulse dialling
setting stays when you switch off.
Which dialling method?
You can easily check whether tone or pulse dialling is required. Proceed as
