Telephone Operation

Notes: 

• Be sure to cancel auto redial if you leave

the area of your telephone. Otherwise,
your phone will hang up 30 seconds
after the called person answers, then
will redial again 30 seconds later, up to
ten times. This could be annoying to the
called person and, if you are calling a
long-distance number, you are charged
for each call.

• You can also use auto redial to automat-

ically redial a number from a Caller ID
record up to ten times. Follow the steps
under “Using Caller/Dial” on Page 24 to
dial the desired Caller ID record. When
the phone number cannot be success-
fully dialed the first time, press 

 to redial it.

You can hang up the handset or use one of
the other phone lines without disconnecting
the current call, by putting a call on hold.

When you put a call on hold, line lock is can-
celled so you can put a call on hold at one
station and pick up the call on another sta-
tion.

To place a call on hold, press

up a line that is on hold, simply press that
line's button.

You can alternate between two lines by
pressing 

 to put your current line on

hold, then pressing the button for the other
line you want to pick up.

Note: If you press the other line's button
without first pressing 

, the first call is

disconnected.

If you do not want the person on the other
end of the phone line to hear your conversa-
tion with someone else at your location,
press

lights and the microphone turns off, but you
can still hear the calling party. 

Press 

 again to resume your conver-

sation.
