Telephone Operation

Directory Dialing

Directory dialing (handset)
The telephone directory in the handset can store up to
50 names and telephone numbers. Each entry can con-
tain a number up to 24 digits, and a name up to 15 let-
ters long. A convenient search feature can help you find
and dial numbers quickly (see pages 16-19).

Speed dialing (base)
In addition to the phone directory, you can add up to 10
numbers you dial frequently into the Speed Dial memo-
ry in the base. These numbers can be dialed with three
button presses (see next page).

Dial number an error tone may sound and you will have
to begin again.

tone will sound when you press
