Overlap Dial

By default, when you lift your handset or press the Speaker button and start to dial a number the
telephone system will start to process this number and send the number to your service provider, such as
BT, for example. This is the normal operation of a telephone. However this method is different to using a
phone such as a mobile, where we enter the number in first and then press the Call button. On a PCS 552
you can decide which method you prefer, you can either go off hook and start to dial or you can use the
Dial Ahead facility as described from page 9. If you wish to always use the Dial Ahead facility when making
a call you can turn off a feature called Overlap Dial as follows.
