    Combining Quick Dial 
    numbers8
    Sometimes you may want to choose from 
    several long distance carriers when you 
    make a call. Rates may vary depending on 
    the time and destination. To take advantage 
    of low rates, you can store the access codes 
    of long-distance carriers and credit card 
    numbers as Speed Dial numbers. You can 
    store these long dialling sequences by 
    dividing them and setting them up as 
    separate Speed Dial numbers in any 
    combination. You can even include manual 
    dialling using the dial pad. (See 
    Storing 
    Speed Dial numbers  on page 61.)
    For example, you might have stored ‘555 ’ on 
    Speed Dial: 03 and ‘7000 ’ on Speed Dial: 02. 
    You can use them both to dial ‘555-7000’ if 
    you press the following keys:
    aPress ( Speed Dial ).
    bPress aor b to choose  Search.
    Press  OK.
    cEnter  03.
    dPress  aor b to choose  Speed Dial .
    Press  OK.
    ePress  aor b to choose  Search.
    Press  OK.
    fEnter  02.
    gPress  Mono Start  or Colour Start .
    You will dial ‘555-7000 ’. To temporarily change a number, you can 
    substitute part of the number with manual 
    dialling using the dial pad. For example, to 
    change the number to 555-7001 you could 
    press (
    Speed Dial ), choose Search, 
    press  03 and then press  7001 using the dial 
    pad.
    Note
    If you must wait for another dial tone or 
    signal at any point in the dialling 
    sequence, create a pause in the number 
    by pressing  Redial/Pause . Each key 
    press adds a 3.5-second delay.
