7.1.4 Ending a Call
To end an ongoing call, press the red “On-hook” key , and the call will be terminated. The duration of the
call is shown in the display. Furthermore, this duration time can also be viewed from the call list where the call is
stored.
NOTE: If one call is active and another call is on hold, then the active call will be terminated when pressing the
red “On-hook” button and the handset automatically returns to the call on hold. The call on hold is now active
and the user has to press the red “On-hook” button again to terminate this call.
7.2 Initiating a Call
A call can be initiated from different locations on the handset:
- By entering the number directly from idle
- From the “Contacts” menu
- From the “Calls” menu
- From the “Central Directory”
How to initiate a call from these different directories is explained in the following sub sections.

When initiating a call from idle it must be done according to the following:
1. Enter the number of the person you want to call when the handset is in idle.
2. Press the green “Off-hook” button to call the number.
3. The handset will show a “Calling” screen as seen above.
4. When the counterpart answers the call the screen will show “Connected” and the two parts are now in
call.
7.2.1.1 Line Call
If the handset is used in a multiline environment, it is possible to make a call from different lines. The line must
be predefined via the settings menu. Refer to the settings section of this guide.
NOTE: To see additional information on the “Line” function, please check the base system document via [2].

prerequisite is met a local contact can be called by highlighting the contact in the contact list and then pressing
the green “Off-hook” button.

left softkey when in idle.
