To dial, you first take the receiver off the hook and listen for the dial tone. You put your finger in the hole for the desired number, and rotate the dial around clockwise until your finger hits the stopper. Take your finger out, and wait for the dial to resume its normal starting position. Continue to do this until the number has been fully dialed.
