Placing a Call with Captions
You place a call on your CapTel 840 the same way as with any other
telephone. As you dial, your CapTel phone automatically connects to the
Captioning Service to show you captions during the call.

Outside Line” on page 77. If you have Call Waiting, please see page 79 for
special instructions.

get captions. If the light is off,
press the CAPTIONS button to
