Making a Call
Depending on how your system is configured you can place a call by simply dialling the 10 digit number. Alternatively your system may be configured to require a '9' or '8' to access an outside line.
Internal Intercom calls can always be made by simply dialling the appropriate extension.
Answering Calls
A flashing appearance button indicates an alerting call. This may also be accompanied by ringing and the the message lamp flashing depending on how your system was configured.
If you are currently not on a call:

Once you have answered the call, you can switch between different talk modes: · To switch to using the handset, simply lift the handset. · To switch to handsfree, press the SPEAKER key. If you were using the handset you can now replace it. · To switch to headset mode, press the HEADSET key. If you were using the handset you can now replace it.
