You will still be able to hear the other person, but anything you say will not be heard. When you release the button, your caller will again be able to hear your voice.
Ringer Volume Contr ol
The RINGER switch allows you to turn the telephone ringer OFF, or set it to ring at LO or HI volume. You can dial or answer calls normally when the ringer is off. Other telephones in your home will still ring; they are not affected by the switch.
T emporary Tone Dialing
Temporary tone dialing is used only when you have rotary service. This is useful if you need to send tone signals for access for telephone banking or long-distance services.
To change from pulse (rotary) to tone dialing during a call:
1. With the Dial Mode switch set to DP (dial pulse), dial a telephone number.
2. Press ; all buttons pressed after this will send tone signals.
3. After you hang up, the phone auto­matically returns to rotary service.

If you have difficulty operating this phone, try the suggestions below.
No Dial Tone
Make sure all plugs are connected properly. Inspect the
line cord connections at the modular jack and at the telephone. Also inspect the coiled handset cord connections at both ends.
Unplug the telephone and connect it to another modular
jack. If it still does not work, try another telephone; if neither telephone works, the problem is not in this telephone. The trouble may be caused by local telephone company lines, central office equipment, or the wiring in your home.
Calls Cannot Be Dialed, Or Are Dialed Slowly
This product comes set in the tone (TT) mode. Make sure you choose the correct dialing method (TT/DP); touch tone dialing will not work if you have dial pulse service.
Telephone Does Not Ring
Make sure the RINGER Volume switch is not set to OFF.If there are several other phones on the same line, try
disconnecting some of the other telephones. Having too many telephones can also create problems such as low ringer volume or impaired quality during calls.
