Using Automatic dial
Automatic dial allows you to dial a number without selecting
a line. Your prime line is selected as soon as you start dialing
a number.
Automatic dial does not work if your telephone has no prime
line or if your prime line is in use.
Telephones connected to an analog terminal adapter (ATA)
cannot use Automatic dial.
Using Pre-dial
Pre-dial allows you to enter a telephone number, check it, then
change it before actually making the call. The call is not dialed
until you select a line or line pool, or pick up the receiver. You
can pre-dial both external and internal numbers. You must,
however, select the correct type of line (external or internal)
for the type of number you have entered.
When the internal number you have called is busy
Priority Call
ƒfl·
If you get a busy signal or a Do Not Disturb message when you
call someone in your office, you can interrupt them. Use this
feature for urgent calls only.
Tip -
If your telephone starts ringing while you are
pre-dialing a number, you can stop the ringing by turning
on Do Not Disturb (
ƒ°fi ). This does not affect
numbers you are entering.
You cannot pre-dial a telephone number if all the lines on
your telephone are busy.
