Hi, Jim The 9 followed by a comma is not country-specific but telephone system-specific, ie if the establishment from which you wish to connect reqquires you to dial 9 for an outside line, that is what you want to enter into the phone number setting on the BN. Incidentally, the purpose of the comma is to insert a pause (half a second, I think) in order to allow the outside line time to come up with the dialling tone - if you so wish. you can insert multiple commas if you need a longer pause! Regards

Thank you so much for letting me know what i SHOULD have done (smile.) Is the nine plus comma only applicable in the USA? I did look up the Manual in the hopes of getting guidance on this, but there was none, so naturally relied on the manager's prior knowledge, which must have been a comma missing!!! > > Where on earth does one dig up this and similar technological niceties? > > Thanks again, Peggy.
