Lift the hands2t and listen for dial tone. 

Press the MR button once. 

The telephone will then automatically call the number. 

When you key a new number it is stored in the Last Number 
Redial Memory and the old number is erased. 

NOTE: 

It is not recommended to use the Last Number Redial feature 

after you have received 'no tone' or  'unobtainable tone' -you may 
have mis-dialled - so key the number in again.  If you still receive 'no 
tone' or 'unobtainable' call the operator. 

Recall Facility 

The button marked 'R' under the handset is used to access the 

recall facility which is used on some switchboards.  Please note that 
this button has no function on telephones connected to Direct 

Exchange Lines. When your telephone is connected to a PBX 
extension,  this button is used to recall the switchboard, put calls on 

hold, transfer calls etc. 

Two  recall options  (Time Break -TBR -and Earth - ER)  are 

selectable and the appropriate one for your telephone will probably 
have already been set for you.  Should this need to be changed 
however,  the detail of this is shown in Figure 

I. 

It is important to note the operation of the recall button may clear 

the Last Number Redial Store. 

Selecting the Signalling Mode 

There are currently two different methods of dialling available in 

the United Kingdom.  Tone dialling is the most  modern method and all 
equipment is gradually being  converted to use tone dialling.  Pulse 
dialling is still the most  usual method at the present time. 

Initial  Selection 

By placing the Pulse Mode Seledor Switch positioned in the 

underside of the  telephone  in the appropriate position the telephone 
will adopt the mode of dialling  selected. 

Figure 

shows the detail of how to change the dialling.
