TELEPHONE OPERATION (CONT.)
Temporary Tone Mode
In Pulse dialing mode, you can access bank
facilities, telephone answering machines,
etc., by simply pressing the TONE(‘ ’key)
to get into the tone mode and input the
required tone codes. It will reset automati-
cally after you end your call. By pressing
the FLASH button, you can return to the
pulse mode during the call.
NOTE:
If you experience difficulty with placing or
receiving calls, a lost security code may
be the cause of the problem. When this
occurs, the handset can no longer com-
municate with its base. The loss of the
code can occur any of the following ways:
if the battery is drained and needs recha-
rging; the handset is out of range of the
base unit; the AC adaptor is disconnected
or a power loss has occurred; or anthing
that causes electrical interference,for ex-
ample multiple cordless telephones, baby
monitors, televisions, VCR’s etc. Reset the
security code by placing the handset on
the base for 10 seconds. If that does not
work, make sure the AC adaptor is
connected. If necessary, unplug the AC
adaptor from the power source. Discon-
nect the battery for 5 seconds and then
reconnect. Place the handset on the base
and then replug the AC adaptor (see
Troubleshooting).
