Mixed Mode dialing (how to switch from pulse to tone in mid – call)

The TONE button helps you make change over from pulse to tone dialling in the middle of a call.
Note: Pulse (Decadic) dialing is not available on NRX Telephones sold in NZ.
What you do: Pulse – dial the telephone numbers you require.
When you are connected, press the “TONE” button
What you do: Dial the rest of the sequence you require. What you hear: Each number you dial emits a tone
When the handset is replaced, the unit goes back to pulse dialing.
