Making And Answering Calls

Using the Handset

To make a call, pick up the handset and dial normally.  The IN USE 
indicator flashes when you receive a call and lights while the phone
is in use.

Pick up the handset to answer a call and place the handset on the base to 
end a call.

Note:  The corded phone will not operate without AC power.  During a power 
       failure, use a backup battery for the base corded phone, or another 
       phone on the same line.

Using the Wireless Headset

1.  Place the wireless headset on your head and adjust the headband and
    microphone for a comfortable fit.
 
2.  Pull down the microphone until it clicks and you hear a dial tone.
    Dial the desired number using the infrared remote dial card.
 
3.  To answer an incoming call, pull down the microphone until it clicks 
    and wait about 1 second.
 
    Notes: If the headset is on the headset charger and the microphone is
           pulled down, place the headset on your head, then press PHONE/
           FLASH on the infrared remote dial card to answer a call.
 
           The headset only receives a signal from the remote dial card
           if the microphone is pulled down.  The dial card does not work
           if the microphone is pulled up.
 
4.  When you finish a call, pull the microphone up until it clicks, or
    press OFF on the infrared remote dial card, or put the headset back on
    the headset charger.

Notes:  The infrared remote dial card only controls the headset, not the
        corded phone.

        If the headset does not work, move the dial card closer to the 
        sensor on the left side of the headset. If it still does not work,
        replace the battery in the dial card.

Using Tone Service On A Pulse Line

If you have pulse service, you can still use special services that require 
tone signals, such as bank-by-phone, by following these steps.

1.  Be sure TONE/PULSE is set to PULSE.
 
2.  Dial the service's main number.
 
3.  When the service answers, press *.  Any additional numbers you dial
    are sent as tone signals.
 
4.  When you hang up, the phone automatically resets to pulse mode.

Memory Dialing

Your ET-007 has one direct memory (00) location and twenty indirect memory 
locations (01-20) for storing frequently used phone numbers.  Each number 
can contain up to 20 digits.

Note:  Memory storing can only be programmed using the corded phone.

Storing a Number In Memory

1.  Be sure the phone is not in use, then press PROGRAM.
 
2.  Enter the 2-digit memory location (00 for the direct memory, or 01 to 
    20 for indirect memory).  The phone rings.
 
3.  Enter the number you want to store (up to 20 digits can be stored), 
    including any pause or tone entries (see "Entering a Pause in a Memory
    Number" below, or "Using Tone Service on a Pulse Line" above.
 
4.  Press MEMORY on the base.  The phone rings to indicate that the number 
    is stored successfully.

Notes:  If you make a mistake while entering the number, press PROGRAM to
        exit.  A beep sounds.  Start again at Step 1.

        You cannot store a memory number if the headset is not connected.

Entering a Pause in a Memory Number

In some telephones systems, you must dial an access code (9, for example) 
and wait for a second dial tone before you can dial an outside number. To 
enter a 2-second pause (for an access code, for example), press HOLD at 
the appropriate point when you store a number.

Note:  Each pause entry uses one digit of memory.

Dialing a Memory Number

To dial a number stored in direct memory, press M1 on the base, or MEM 
then 00 on the infrared remote dial card for headset use.

To dial a number stored in memory, press MEMORY (or MEM on the remote dial 
card), then enter the desired memory location number (01-20).
       
Chain-Dialing 

For quick recall of numbers for special services (such as bank-by-phone or 
alternate long-distance), you can store each group of numbers in its own 
memory location.  Then, when calling special services, dial the service's 
main number first.  At the appropriate place in the call, press the memory 
location button for the additional numbers you want to send.

Testing Stored Emergency Numbers

If you store an emergency service's number (police department, fire 
department, ambulance) and you want to test the stored number, make the 
test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid peak 
demand periods.  Remain on the line to explain the reason for your call.

headset, so that you can talk to someone at the headset or locate it if 
you misplaced it.

    continuous beeps until someone picks up the phone.

    card again.  Otherwise, the corded base phone rings five times, then 
    stops.
