Make sure your battery pack is fully charged before choosing the dialing mode. D. Choose the dialing mode Most phone systems use tone dialing which sends DTMF tones through the phone lines. However some phone systems still use pulse dialing. Pulse dialing is often found in rural areas. The default setting is tone dialing. Depending on your dialing system, set the mode as follows: 1) Press menu/enter. 2) Press v or w and select "Tone/Pulse". 3) Press menu/enter, and the display will show the current setting. (The initial setting is Tone.) 4) Press v or w to change the selection. 5) Press menu/enter to confirm your selection. 6) The display will automatically change to the Menu Screen after 3 to 5 seconds. • If you are not sure of your dialing system, set the unit to tone dialing. Make a trial call. If the call connects, leave the setting as is, otherwise set the unit to pulse dialing. • If your phone system requires pulse dialing and you need to send the DTMF tones for certain situations during a call, you may "switch-over" to tone dialing. (Refer to "Tone Dialing Switch-over" on page 21.) [ 10 ] G E T T I N G S T A R T E D
