Using the Phone
Receiving a Call
When you receive a call, the phone rings while the LCD displays the incoming call information.
To answer an incoming call:
• Lift the handset or press the button to activate the speakerphone.
To end a call:
• Hang up the handset. If using the speakerphone, press the button.
Placing a Call
Calls can be placed with the handset on-hook or off-hook. This is similar to a mobile phone. The
phone supports a technique called ‘store and forward dialing’. After you dial a digit, the phone
waits about 5 seconds for additional digits. If you do not dial additional digits, the phone sends
the digits you dialed to the phone system for processing. When done dialing, press ? to place
the call immediately.
To place a call:
• Lift the handset or press the button to activate the speakerphone.
• Dial the destination number. After a short delay, the phone will send the number. Optionally,
press ? to place the call immediately.
• When connected to the remote party, the LCD displays the elapsed call time.
To end a call:
• Hang up the handset. If using the speakerphone, press the button.
