Temporary Tone Dialing

If you have pulse (rotary) service, you can change from pulse to touch tone dialing during
a call by pressing TONE. This is useful if you need to send touch tone signals for access
to telephone banking or long distance services.
1. Dial the number.
2. Press TONE. Buttons pressed after this send touch tone signals.
3. After you hang up, the phone automatically returns to pulse service.

Operating Range

This cordless telephone operates within the maximum power allowed by the Federal Com-
munications Commission (FCC). Even so, this Handset and Base can communicate over
only a certain distance — which can vary with the locations of the Base and Handset, the
weather, and the construction of your home or office.
If you receive a call while you are out of range, the Handset might not ring — or if it
does ring, the call might not connect when you press ON. Move closer to the Base, then
press ON to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a phone conversation, you might hear noise or
interference. To improve reception, move closer to the Base.
If you move out of range without pressing OFF, your phone will be left off the hook. To
hang up properly, walk back into range, periodically pressing OFF.
