Here are some pointers a- bout how to guard against these mistakes: 1. Wait for the dial tone. Like the "Number, please" of the operator in the manual system, the dial tone is the equipment's way of telling you' it is ready to take your call. Normally, it is heard on the line almost immediately after you lift the receiver. However sometimes when an unusual number of calls is being placed the tone may not be beard tor several seconds. If you begin to dial before you hear the tone, some of the signals sent out by the turning dial may not be transmitted to theswitclr ing equipment and a wrong number or no connection at all can result. 2. Allow the dial to spin back by itself. Don't leave your finger in the slot or at- tempt to hurry the dial back. The dial is arranged to return automatically at the speed needed to pass along the infor- mation to the dial equipment properly. If the motion is in- terfered with, you may obtain a wrong number. 3. Dial each figure care- fully. Be especially careful not to transpose figures. If you are not certain of the num- ber, look it up and jot it down where it will be available for future use.
