Chain-Dialing Service
Numbers

For quick recall of numbers for special
services (such as alternate long dis-
tance or bank by phone), store each
group of numbers in its own memory
location.

To use the stored special service infor-
mation, dial the service’s main number
first. Then, at the appropriate place in
the call, press

MEM

and the number for

the location where the additional infor-
mation is stored.

Testing Stored Emergency
Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s
number (police department, fire de-
partment, ambulance) and you choose
to test the stored number, make the
test call during the late evening or early
morning hours to avoid peak demand
periods. Also, remain on the line to ex-
plain the reason for your call.

USING A HEADSET

You can make or answer calls with
hands-free convenience using an op-
tional headset that has a

3

/

32

-inch plug.

We recommend RadioShack Cat. No.
43-194, which is specially designed for
use with the ET-918/920.

To connect the headset, pull open the
rubber cover marked

on the side of

the handset, then insert the headset’s

3

/

32

-inch plug into the jack.

Notes:

• Connecting a headset discon-

nects the handset’s earpiece and
microphone.

VOLUME

on the handset (see

“Setting the Handset Volume” on
Page 12) also controls the con-
nected headset’s volume.

• If you place the handset on the

base to recharge it while the
headset is connected, be sure the
handset seats properly.

With a headset connected, you make
or answer calls as usual using the keys
on the handset.

When you finish using the headset,
disconnect it from the handset and
close the rubber cover to protect the
jack.
