Entering a Pause in a Memory
Number
In some telephone systems, you must
dial an access code (9, for example)
and wait for a second dial tone before
you can dial an outside number. If your
phone is connected to one of these
systems, you might want to enter a
pause at the appropriate point when
you store a phone number in memory.
When storing a number, press PAUSE
to enter a 3-second pause. For a long-
er pause, press
PAUSE again (each
press enters a 3-second pause).
Dialing a Stored Number
Follow these steps to dial a number
stored in memory.
• Lift the handset from the cradle
and press TALK so the IN USE
indicator lights.
• When you hear a dial tone, press
MEMORY and then press the
memory location number where
the phone number is stored. The
phone dials the stored number.
Chain Dialing Service
Numbers
When calling special services (such as
alternate long distance or bank by
phone), dial the service’s main number
first. Then, at the appropriate place in
the call, press
MEMORY and the num-
ber for the location where the addition-
al information 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.
