Changing the Dial Mode
Your phone can communicate with the telephone network in two different ways: tone dialing or pulse dialing. These
days, most base networks use a method called tone dialing, so your phone comes programmed for tone dialing. If
your phone company uses pulse dialing, you will need to change your phone’s dial mode. If you don’t get a dial tone
or can’t connect to the telephone network, please follow the steps below to modify your phone’s settings:
Press
1)
[Menu/Select]. Select the GLOBAL SETUP menu, and then the
DIAL MODE submenu.
Scroll
2)
3)
[ ] to highlight PULSE.
Press
[Menu/Select]. You will hear a conrmation tone.
If you ever need to change the dial mode back to tone dialing, follow the same procedure, but select TONE in step 2.
Note: If you have multiple bases, select the base before changing the dial mode (see Selecting the Base on
page 21).
