Using autodial delay
A number is automatically dialled after a set delay starting from the entry of the
number’s last digit. The autodial delay can be used:
• when dialling in idle mode
• when deflecting an incoming call
• Consultation
• when transferring an answered call.
The delay can be reduced by performing one of the following activities:
• pressing the i key. This always works.
• lifting the handset. This only works if the phone number was entered when the
phone was idle or if it was entered for a consultation call when the handset was
off hook.
• pressing the loudspeaker key. This only works if the phone number was en-
tered when the phone was idle and the loudspeaker key was not lit or if the
phone number was entered for a consultation call and the loudspeaker key
was not lit.
