Touch tones
Your phone can generate various sounds, called touch
tones, when the keys are pressed. These are also
known as DTMF tones.
Touch tones can be used for many automated, over-
the-phone services such as checking bank balances,
airline arrival and departure times, and using voice
mailbox options. Touch tones can be sent only when a
call is active.
Storing touch tone strings
Touch tone strings can be used for sending and re-
ceiving information with your phone. For example, you
can store your office voice mailbox number, along with
your password for easy access to your messages.
Store touch tone strings the same way you store
phone numbers (see page 51).
You can store a whole digit sequence in your phone
book and send it as touch tones for frequently-used
strings of numbers.
