Temporary Tone Dialing
(For Rotary or Pulse Service Users)
Press [*] (TONE) before entering access numbers which require tone
dialing.
• The dialing mode changes to tone. You can enter numbers to access an
answering service, electronic banking service, etc. When you hang up, the dialing
mode will return to pulse.
For Call Waiting Service Users
If another call is received on the same line during a conversation, you will
hear a call waiting tone. Press [FLASH/CALL WAIT] to answer the second
call.
• The first call is put on hold.
• To return to the first caller, press [FLASH/CALL WAIT] again.
• Call Waiting service cannot be used when:
— the first call on the same line is put on hold,
— the Answering System is handling a call on the same line, or
— you are having a conference call on both lines.
• If this function does not operate properly, consult your telephone company for
details.
Visual Call Waiting Service
If you subscribe to both Call Display and Visual Call
Waiting services, when a second call is received on the
same line while talking, the second caller’s information
will be displayed. After you hear a call waiting tone while
talking, the display shows the caller’s name with the
phone number, “Waiting” and the line.
• The second caller’s information will not be displayed when a parallel connected
telephone is in use.
• Contact your telephone company for details about availability in your area, and to
verify that Visual Call Waiting service is activated on your telephone line.
• The caller’s information will only be shown on the display of the handset which is
on the outside call on the same line.
