Problem

Possible Solution

The telephone is not working
properly.

Contact your system administrator.

I cannot use one or more of the
features described in this guide.

The feature may not be enabled. Contact your system
administrator for more information.

I cannot program System Speed-
Dial numbers.

Your system administrator programs System Speed Dial
numbers.

I am experiencing audio problems
on my phone such as echo,
distorted sound, or choppiness.

Contact your system administrator if you are having
audio problems.

I cannot use the local telephone
company star codes (for example,
*82, *69) when I press the
Outgoing button or use the
Outgoing Call access code (8)
when calling an external number.

Rather than pressing the Outgoing button or 8 to access
an outside line, you must dial a Select Line Group
number before you can use the star codes. For example,
if your system is using the default Select Line Group
numbers, dial 92001 to access that line. After you have
dial tone, you can dial the star code and the number.

I cannot use the Agent Help,
Record-a-Call, or Station Monitor
feature.

If your system uses Peer-to-Peer (P2P) audio, you
cannot use these features when you are on a P2P call.
Contact your system administrator for more information.
