Making calls
If no dialling plans for emergency numbers
are preset on your telephone, you should set
dialling plans yourself. Assign them to a con-
nection that you know supports emergency
numbers. Calls to emergency numbers are
always supported by fixed lines.
Please note: If no dialling plans are defined
for emergency numbers and you have pro-
grammed an automatic local area code, the
code will also be prefixed to emergency
numbers as soon as they are dialled via a
VoIP connection.
Continuing a call on a headset
Prerequisite: You have assigned the Head-
set function to a function key on the base
before connecting the headset
(¢ page 116).
Bluetooth headset:
Prerequisite: Bluetooth is activated; a con-
nection has been established between the
Bluetooth headset and the base
(
¢ page 108).
¤ Press the Headset function key on the
base.
It can take up to five seconds to establish a
connection between the base and a head-
set.
For further information about Bluetooth
headsets see
page 112.
Wire-bound headsets:
Prerequisite: The headset is connected to
the base (
¢ page 12).
¤ Press the Headset function key on the
base.
For more information about wire-bound
headsets see
page 115.
Making calls via your mobile
connection (Link2mobile)
You can make calls from the base via the
GSM mobile connection on your Bluetooth
mobile.
Prerequisites:
You can make a call via the GSM connection
in the same way as any other send connec-
tion on the base ( ¢
Permanently assigned
send connection on page 49, Selecting a
connection at each call
on page 50 and
Using an alternative connection/connec-
tion list on the display/function key
on
page 50).
Recommendation
We recommend you assign the Headset
function to a function key on the
base
(
¢ page 116) and use this func-
tion key to accept/transfer calls – even if
your headset has a push-to-talk key.
Please note
If both a Bluetooth headset and a wire-
bound headset are connected to
the base, the call is transferred to the
Bluetooth headset.
u Your GSM mobile is registered to the base
(
¢ page 113).
u The mobile is within range of the base
(less than 10 m) and has a Bluetooth con-
nection to the base.
u The base is able to use the mobile con-
nection as a send connection, i.e., the
GSM connection is assigned to the base
as send connection or the base can select
the GSM connection as the send connec-
tion
(
¢ page 128).
Please note
A call is cancelled as soon as the mobile is
outside the range of the base (about
10 m) or Bluetooth is deactivated.
