Touch tones
Touch tones, or DTMF tones, are the tones that sound when you press the keys on
your device keypad. You can use touch tones for many automated dial-up services
such as banking and airlines or for entering your voice mailbox number and password.
Touch tones are sent during an active call. You can send them manually from your
device keypad, or send them automatically by saving them in your device.
Set type
Select Menu > Settings > Phone > Touch tones > Manual touch tones and one of
the following options:
Continuous—Set the tone sound for as long as you press and hold a key.
Fixed—Send tones of the duration you specify in the Touch tone length option.
Off—Turn off tones. No tones are sent when you press a key.
Set length
To specify touch-tone length for the Fixed option, select Menu > Settings > Phone >
Touch tones > Touch tone length > Short (0.1 seconds) or Long (0.5 seconds).
Start-up tone
You can select to have a start-up tone when you first turn on your device. In the
standby mode, select Menu > Settings > Phone > Start-up tone > On or Off.
Help text activation
Your device displays brief descriptions for most menu items. When you arrive at
a feature or menu, pause for about 14 seconds, and wait for the help text to be
displayed. If necessary, use the scroll key to page through the full help text.
