Access Codes and Credit Card Numbers
Sometimes you may want to choose from among several long
distance carriers when you make a call. Rates may vary
depending upon the time and destination. To take advantage of
low rates, you can store the access codes or long-distance carriers
as One Touch numbers. You can store these long dialing
sequences by dividing them and setting them up on separate keys
in any combination. You can even include manual dialing using
the dial pad. The combined number will be dialed in the order you
entered it. as soon as you press
Start

You can store “555” on One Touch key

and “7000” on One
Touch key

dial “555-7000”. To temporarily change a number, you can
