Operating Tips

The tones generated by the tone dialer are accurate and strong enough to
activate most equipment.  However, older telephones that have microphones
with poor sensitivity might not receive the tones properly.  As a result,
the equipment might not operate, or might operate incorrectly.  In some
cases, the following procedure improves operation with old telephones.

1.  Hold the telephone's handset vertically.

2.  Be sure the tone dialer's rubber ring is directly over the handset's
    mouthpiece.

If you still have problems, lightly tap the handset several times on a
hard surface.  These taps loosen the carbon particles in the microphone,
which makes the microphone perform better.
