Tone Dialing Switch-over Some telephone companies use equipment that requires pulse dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to enter tone dialing digits, you can switchover to tone dialing during the call. For example, entering your bank account number after you have called your bank. Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once your call connects, press /tone/t. Enter the desired number. These digits will be sent as tone dialing. Once the call ends, the tone mode is canceled and pulse dialing mode resumes. Traveling Out-of-Range During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, you will hear a beep and "Out of Range" appears, then the handset returns to the standby mode. You may return back to the call if you move your handset within the range limits of the base, and press talk/flash or speaker within 30 seconds. • The tone feature only applies when the dial mode is set to pulse. • This special number can be stored in a memory location. This is referred to as Chain Dialing (see page 44). BASICS Clarity Booster If you encounter interference while using your phone, you can manually improve the sound quality for clear operation.
