3. When you complete the call, hang up the
handset and return the switch to PULSE .
OPERATION
Using Redial
You can quickly dial the last number dialed by
pressing
REDIAL / PAUSE when you hear a dial
tone. The redial memory holds up to 32 digits,
to store long distance as well as local number.
The number in redial memory is replaced
each time you dial a new number.
Note: If you press FLASH while dialing a num-
ber, only the digits entered after pressing
FLASH are stored in redial memory.
Using Flash
Many special telephone services, such as Call
Waiting, require a switchhook signal. The
FLASH button provides the electronic equiva-
lent of a switchhook operation.
For example, if you have Call Waiting, you
can put a call on hold and take a second in-
coming call on the same line by pressing
FLASH .
Only the digits you dial after you press FLASH
are stored in redial memory.
Note: If you do not have any special phone
services requiring a switchhook signal, press-
ing
FLASH might disconnect the current call.
Using Pause
In some telephone systems, you must dial an
access code (9, for example) and wait for a
second dial tone before dialing an outside
number. When you manually dial a number, or
when you store a number in memory, you can
have your telephone pause anywhere during
the dialing sequence. Press
REDIAL/PAUSE at
the desired location.
When you redial or memory dial a number, the
telephone pauses for about 2 seconds at the
pause entry. For longer pauses, press REDI-
AL/PAUSE again.
Storing a Number in Memory
The telephone can store up to 13 phone num-
bers in memory (3 emergency numbers, and
10 standard memory numbers).
1. With the handset off hook, press STORE .
2. Enter the number to be stored.
3. Press STORE again.
4. Enter the desired memory location for the
number. To store the number in an emer-
gency memory location, press an emer-
gency memory icon (ambulance, fire
department, police). To store the number
in a standard memory location, press a
number key (
0-9 ).
Notes:
• Since pressing STORE does not break the
dial tone, the phone company “line alert”
signal may occur when entering longer
numbers. This does not affect number
storage.
• To replace a number in one of the mem-
ory locations repeat steps 1 through 4.
During step 2, enter the new number in
any memory location you wish to change.
Dialing a Stored Number
To dial a number stored in an emergency
memory location, press that emergency icon.
To dial a number stored in a standard memory
location, press
MEMORY , then press the de-
sired memory key ( 0-9 ).
If you stored an emergency service’s number
(police, fire department, ambulance) and you
want to test the stored number, make the test
call during late evening or early morning hours
to avoid peak demand periods. Remain on the
line to explain the reason for your call.
