Using the Phone
Making calls
You can make a call at any time by choosing an off-hook method (such as lifting the
handset, pressing a Line key, or pressing HEADSET or SPEAKER), and then dialing
a number. When the phone is in idle mode or has calls on hold, you can make a call
by pre-dialing a phone number and then going off hook to call the number.
To go off hook and make a call:
1. To use the default line, lift the handset, press HEADSET, or press
SPEAKER. To use a specic line, press a Line key. You hear a dial tone.
2. Use the key pad to enter the desired phone number.
• Press
Backspc
if you enter an incorrect digit.
• Press
123
to change from entering digits to entering letters (if you
need to enter a domain name as part of the number).
3. Press
Dial
, or, if the phone accepts the number as valid, it dials the
number after a short delay.
Note that the factory default soft keys are shown above. Your phone’s soft keys
are programmable and may differ from what is shown here.
NOTE: If your administrator enables the Hotline feature, then the phone
automatically dials a pre-programmed number after going off hook.
