18 Operation
Entering a Pause
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 out-
side number. You can store the access code
with the phone number. However, you
should also store a pause after the access
code to allow the outside line time to con-
nect.
To enter a 2-second pause, press PAUSE
( RDL/PAUSE on the handset). P appears if
you are storing a number into the handset’s
memory. You can add more pause entries
for a longer pause.

Testing Stored Emergency
Numbers

evening or early morning hours to avoid peak
demand periods. Also, remain on the line to
explain the reason for your call.

dioShack store for a suitable headset.
