Chain Dialling
After lifting the handset, you can dial
any combination of Normal Dialling,
Rapid Key Dialling and Speed Dialling
numbers. For example, if you have
stored an area code or an access
code for a special service in a Rapid
Key, you can press the Rapid Key for
that area code or access code, then
dial the remainder of the number by
pressing a Rapid Key, pressing
number keys, or pressing the SPEED
DIAL key and entering a two-digit
Speed Dial number.
Using the HOLD/SEARCH key
You can use the HOLD/SEARCH key
to search for a Rapid Key or Speed
Dial number. First search for the
number as described in Using the
HOLD/SEARCH key in Sending a Fax
by Automatic Dialling in Chapter 2,
then pick up the handset or press the
SPEAKER key. The number will be
dialled automatically (do not press the
START/MEMORY key).
Redial
The last number called can be
redialled by pressing the REDIAL key
(it is not necessary to pick up the
handset or press the SPEAKER key).
When the other party answers, pick
up the handset to talk.
Hold
You can put the other party on hold
during a conversation by pressing the
HOLD/SEARCH key. When this is
done, they cannot hear you. You can
put the handset back in the cradle
without breaking the connection.
When you are ready to speak with
them again, pick up the handset. If
you did not put the handset back in
the cradle, press the HOLD/
SEARCH key again to resume
conversation.
