Setting the Dialing Mode
• If your phone system requires
that you dial an access code (9,
for example) before you dial an
outside number, do not dial the
access code.
• The phone exits setting mode if
a call or page is received, or if
you press END.
• If the battery power becomes
too low, the dialing mode might
reset to tone. If you are on a
pulse line and cannot make a
call, try setting the dialing mode
to pulse.
Making and Receiving Calls
If the handset is too far from the
base while the phone is in use,
pressing END might not disconnect
the phone. Hang up the handset on
the base.
Selecting the Channel
If the handset is too far from the
base, an error tone sounds and the
channel might not change. Move
closer to the base.
Using Redial
• The redial memory holds up to
24 digits, so you can redial long-
distance as well as local
numbers.
• The redial memory also holds
pause entries (see “Entering a
Pause” on Page 9).
• The redial memory does not
store a flash entry or any digits
you press before FLASH (see
“Using Flash” on Page 7).
Using Flash
If you do not have any special
phone services, pressing FLASH
might disconnect the current call.
