   x                                                                              x
   x                       Pulse or Tone                                          x

   x Select method of dialing.  Since almost everyone has touch-tone, you         x

   x leave the dialing method set to tone unless you are sure you need            x 
   x pulse.  Use the up and down arrow keys to move among the selections, and     x 
   x press the spacebar to select one.  When you are finished, use TAB to         x 
   x select <OK> and ENTER to move on to the next item.                           x
