Answering Calls
When you receive an incoming call, the phone rings (if enabled) and shows the 
identification of the caller on the display. If the caller’s name is too long to fit 
on the screen, it will automatically scroll horizontally across the display. In the 
figure below, Alexander Smithson-Reid’s full name will scroll across the 
display.
When you are not in another call, you can answer a call using the handset, the 
speakerphone, or the headset(if enabled).
The steps for answering an incoming call when you are in another call are 
different if your phone is configured for:
• A single Line Key per line
Note
To permanently enable your headset, see Changing the Ring Type on page 77.
