Choosing the Dialing Mode
Your phone can communicate with the telephone network in two different ways: tone
dialing and pulse dialing. These days, most phone networks use a method called tone
dialing, so your phone comes programmed for tone dialing.
If your phone company uses pulse dialing, you'll need to change your phone's dial
mode. There's an easy way to tell: try making a call. If your call connects, your
phone's setting is fine. If not, follow the steps below:

key and return the handset to the main base to complete the

Entering Your Area Code
If you can make a call by dialing only 7 digits (instead of 10), you can program your
local area code in your phone. If you get a call from within your area code, you'll
only see the 7-digit phone number. If you get a call from outside your area code,
you'll see all 10 digits.
If your phone system
requires pulse dialing and
you need to send the
DTMF tones during a call,
you can temporarily
switch over to tone
dialing. (Refer to "Tone
Dialing Switch-over" on
page 20.)
