Shared Lines
A shared line is one extension that is assigned to multiple phones. When a shared line rings, it can either
ring one phone at a time, on each phone assigned to that call group until the call is answered, or it can
ring on all phones in a call group at the same time. Once a share line call is answered, the line button on
your phone lights green, notifying you that the line is in use.
Answer a Shared Line
• Pick up the handset on your phone, then press the
line button to the left of the shared line extension
that is flashing amber in color.
• Press the line button to the left of the shared line
extension that is flashing amber in color to answer
the call on your speaker phone.
Manage Call Waiting
If you are on a call when a second call comes in, you will hear a call-waiting tone or see a flashing indicator
light on the handset.
Step 1
To answer the new call, press the Answer soft key to
answer the call. Press the Divert button to send the
new call to voice mail.
NOTE: When the new call is answered, the call on the
other line is automatically put on hold.
