Step by step
Using autodial delay
A number is automatically dialed after a set delay start-
ing from the entry of the number’s last digit. The auto-
dial delay can be used:
•
when dialing in idle mode
• when deflecting an incoming call
• Consultation
• when transferring an answered call.
The delay can be reduced by performing one of the fol-
lowing activities:
i
• Press the key shown. This always works.
^
• Lift the handset (off-hook). 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.
n
• Press the key shown. This only works if the phone
number was entered when the phone was idle and
the loudspeaker key was not lit or if the phone num-
ber was entered for a consultation call and the loud-
speaker key was not lit.
If an emergency number is preset by your admin-
istrator, the autodial delay for this phone number
is reduced to one second.
Automatic dial delay does not work if you are us-
ing a dial plan and
Immediate dialing is config-
ured (see page 30). The number is automati-
cally dialed as soon as the string entered
matches an entry in the dial plan.
