Dialing using a Speed Dial Number
The phone has a Phone Book that can store up to 100 contacts. Each record includes a name,
contact information and a speed dial number (00–99). When you dial a speed dial number, the
phone initiates a call to the contact. By default, the speed dialing feature is enabled. If disabled,
this feature will not work.
To place a call using a speed dial number:
• Dial the speed dial number (00–99), then press ? to place the call to the desired contact. The
phone will dial the number programmed in the phone book. If an access code has been
preprogrammed for the phone (example: 9 for gaining access to outside lines), the access
code will automatically be prepended to the programmed speed dial entry for placing the call.
DND (Do Not Disturb)
When the DND (Do Not Disturb) feature is enabled, the phone will not notify you of an incoming
call thus allowing you to work without interruptions from incoming calls. Calls will be routed
according to the settings programmed for your extension or service.
To enable DND:
• Dial _HS + ?.
To disable DND:
• Dial _HS + ? again.
Muting a Call
Mute toggles the microphone of the handset and speakerphone off or on. When mute is active,
the connected party will not hear anything from the phone.
To mute the microphone:
• Press the button. “Mute” displays in the LCD.
To unmute the microphone:
• Press the button again.
Accessing Your VoiceMail
When you have a message waiting, the Message LED flashes to indicate you have new
messages in your mailbox.
To access your voice mailbox:
• Press the button. Follow the instructions from your voicemail system to listen to
messages.
Hotline/Warm-Line
With Hotline/Warm-Line operation configured, the phone automatically calls the defined
destination when you take the handset off-hook or press the button. Hotline means the call
is made immediately, while warm-line provides a delay of up to 10 seconds before placing the
call. The latter provides time to access a system feature or line as might be required. Note that
with Hotline configured, speed dial, redial and other automated dialing features will not operate.
