Midnight II 13-Memory Fashion Fone (430-0829) Operation Faxback Doc. # 31419 USING YOUR TELEPHONE Placing a Call To make a call, simply lift the handset and dial the number as you would with any other standard phone. NOTE: If TONE/PULSE is set to PULSE, it takes the phone a few seconds to finish dialing. Putting a Call on Hold To temporarily put a call on hold without disconnecting it, press HOLD. HOLD lights. Then do one of the following: * Set the handset on its cradle. The call does not disconnect. To release the line from hold and continue your phone conversation, pick up the handset or another phone's handset that is on the same line. * Hold the handset or set it next to the phone. To release the line from hold and continue your phone conversation, press and release FLASH or the phone's switchhook. Using MUTE If you want to speak with someone to the room without the person on the phone hearing your conversation, press and hold MUTE. To resume your phone conversation, release MUTE. Using REDIAL Each time you dial a number, your telephone automatically stores it in the temporary redial memory. The redial number is replaced each time you dial a new number. The redial memory holds up to 32 digits (31 in the tone mode). To use the redial function, simply lift the handset and press REDIAL. NOTES: If you press FLASH while dialing a number, only the digits pressed before FLASH are stored in the temporary redial memory. If you redial a number that contains a change from pulse to tone, the phone includes this entry in the redial memory. The telephone automatically pauses for 2 seconds at the point of change. Using FLASH Many special phone services require a switchhook signal, (a quick press and release of the switchhook). Pressing FLASH sends the same signal more accurately and conveniently. For example, if you subscribe to call-waiting (a special phone company service), press FLASH to put one call on hold and answer another call. Press FLASH again to alternate between the two calls. NOTES: If you do not have special telephone services, pressing FLASH might disconnect your current call. The redial memory does not store a FLASH entry or any buttons you press after FLASH. STORING NUMBERS IN MEMORY Your phone has 13 memory locations (3 high-priority and 10 standard numbers) in which you can store numbers for quick dialing later. Each memory location can contain up to 15 tone digits or 16 pulse digits. Storing a Flash Entry Some telephone systems provide special phone services that require a switchhook signal to transfer calls to an extension. FLASH sends the electronic equivalent of a switchhook signal. To store FLASH entry, press FLASH before entering the extension numbers into a memory location. Note: FLASH can be stored only as the first digit in either the priority or standard memories. Priority Memories Your phone has three priority memory locations (M1, M2, and M3) which you can use to store numbers for one-touch dialing later. Follow these steps to store telephone numbers in the priority memories. NOTE: Be sure TONE/PULSE is set correctly for your service before you lift the handset. 1. Lift the handset and press STORE. 2. Dial the number you want to store, include any pulse-to-tone mode changes. A confirmation tone sounds each time you press a button. NOTES: A pulse-to-tone change entry counts as one digit in memory. If you make a mistake while entering a number, simply return the handset to the cradle and begin again from Step 1. 3. Press the priority button (M1, M2, or M3) you want to use to access the telephone number. The telephone number is stored in the priority memory location. 4. To store numbers into the other two priority memory locations, before you hang up the phone, press STORE twice, then repeat Steps 2 and 3. NOTES: You cannot delete numbers. You can only replace a stored number with a new number. As you store numbers in memory, write down the name next to the memory location number on the index card on the bottom of the base. Use a pencil in case you want to change the number later. To end the store mode, return the handset to the cradle. Standard Memories You can store up to 10 telephone numbers in the phone's standard memory. Each memory location can contain up to 15 tone digits or 16 pulse digits. Follow these steps to store a telephone number in the standard memories. NOTE: Be sure TONE/PULSE is set correctly for your service before you lift the handset. 1. Lift the handset and press STORE. 2. Dial the number you want to store. Include any pulse-to-tone mode changes. A confirmation tone sounds each time you press a button. NOTES: A pulse-to-tone change entry counts as one digit in memory. If you make a mistake while entering a number, simple return the handset to the cradle and begin again from Step 1. 3. Press MEMORY then the two-digit memory code (01-10) you want to use to access the telephone number. The telephone number is stored in the two-digit memory location. 4. To store numbers into the other 9 standard memory locations, before you hang up the phone, press STORE twice, then repeat Steps 2 and 3. NOTES: You cannot delete numbers. You can only replace a stored number with a new number. As you store numbers in memory, write down the person's name next to the memory location number on the index card on the bottom of the base. Use a pencil in case you want to change the number later. If you hear the operator interrupt message while storing any number, hang up the phone then repeat Steps 1-4 to continue storing phone numbers. To end the store mode, return the handset to the cradle. DIALING NUMBERS FROM MEMORY To dial a number in a standard memory location, lift the handset, press MEMORY, then enter the two-digit code (01-10) for the stored telephone number. To dial a number in a priority memory location, simply lift the handset and press the priority button (M1, M2, or M3) for the stored telephone number. To place test calls for stored emergency numbers, follow these guidelines: * Place the call in the off-peak hours, such as early in the morning or late in the evening. * Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call before you hang up. STORING/CHAIN DIALING SPECIAL SERVICE NUMBERS The 16-digit capacity of a single memory location might not be large enough to hold all the numbers you need for some special services. When you use special tone services (such as alternate long-distance or bank-by-phone), you can store the telephone number in one memory location and store additional information in other memory locations. This "chain-dialing" procedure lets you make special service calls using more than one memory location. NOTE: Chain dialing works only if you store the numbers in 2 or more memory locations using the tone mode. Lift the handset and use any dialing method to call the service's telephone number. When the service answers, press MEMORY then the 2-digit number code for the location where you stored any additional numbers. Repeat this as many times as you have memory locations. CAUTION: To safeguard against unauthorized access, we recommend you do not store your personal identification number in a memory location. USING TONE SERVICE ON A PULSE LINE Some special services, such as alternate long-distance and bank-by-phone, require tone signals. If you have pulse service, you can still use special tone services by following these steps. 1. Set TONE/PULSE to PULSE. 2. Call the special service using pulse dialing. 3. When the service answers, press TONE. Any additional numbers you dial are sent as touch-tone signals. 4. Follow the normal procedures for the special service you are using. NOTES: The telephone returns to the pulse mode when you hang up. The pulse-to-tone mode change counts as one digit in memory. Some special services use the * and # buttons in the tone mode. * and # have no function in the pulse mode. (CS 3/14/96)
