Make a Call
All phones in these series have a handsfree speaker so that you can dial
and hear the call progress without having to pickup the handset.
On some models this facility is only one-way so you must use the handset
to be heard once the call is connected
To make a call:
1. Dial the number you require.
• If ENTER ACCOUNT appears then you are required to enter an
account code before making calls, see page 11.
2. When answered either pickup the handset or, if your phone supports it,
continue handsfree, see "Handsfree Operation" on page 11.
3. To end the call either put down the handset or if working handsfree
press Spkr .
Using the Directory
The phone can display a directory of group names, extension names or
directory names from which you can select and then dial. This feature is
not supported on phones without Menu
and keys.
Note: This feature can work in two modes, Classic or Dial Name mode (the
default). Contact your System Administrator if unsure which mode your
telephone system uses.
To use the directory:
1. Press Menu
and select Dir (this feature can also be set under a
DSS key, see page 22).
• Alternatively, press Menu
twice. Press and then select Dir.
2. Select from INDeX (internal extensions), Group (hunt groups) or Extrn
(numbers in the IP Office Directory).
3. The next steps depend on which mode of working your system is using:
• Dial Name Mode
a. Using the letter keys, start dialing the name that you want, eg. for
names starting with John dial 5646. Ignore any spaces in the name.
b. The display will show the first match to the letters entered so far.
Either enter further letters or:
• Press the and keys on either side of the current name to display
the other matches found so far.
• If NO MATCH is displayed press to go back to the previous step.
c. When the name you want is shown select Call.
d. If you cannot find the name you want press Exit
twice.
• Classic Mode
a. Press the dialpad button that matches the first letter of the name you
want. For example, to select L press the 5 key three times.
b. Use the and keys to move through the matching entries. You can
press another key on the dialing pad to select a different first letter.
c. When the name you want is shown select Call.
d. If you cannot find the name you want press Exit
twice.
