Mute Microphone
You can temporarily turn Off the microphone so that the person
you are talking with cannot hear you. During a telephone call
press and hold
MENU/MUTE
to turn Off the microphone, and
“
Mute
” appears on the display. Press
MENU/MUTE
again to
cancel muting.
Tone Dialing Switch-over
Some telephone companies use equipment that requires pulse
dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to
enter tone dialing digits, you can switch-over to tone dialing
during the call. For example, entering your bank account number
after you have called your bank.
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once your
call connects, press
✱
/TONE
. Enter the desired number. These
digits will be sent as tone dialing. Once the call ends, the tone
mode is canceled and pulse dialing mode resumes.
If you press
END
to cancel muting, the call is disconnected and the
phone will return to standby mode.
• The tone feature
only applies when
the dial mode is set
to pulse.
• This special number
can be stored in a
memory location.
This is referred to as
Chain Dialing. (See
page 35.)
