Intercom Operation

(This is ONLY applicable with addition of Model 25832A optional handset)

The intercom feature allows you to have a conversation with another registered handset

without tying up the telephone line. And since the telephone line is not in use, you may

still receive incoming calls.

Making an Intercom Call

1. Make sure the phone is OFF (not in talk mode).
2. Press the INT button on the handset.
3. Use the touch-tone pad to select the handset you want to page.

NOTE: To cancel page, press the INT button again or the *EXIT button on the

sending handset.

4. Wait for the person at the receiving handset to press the INT button.

NOTE: If the receiving handset does not answer within two minutes, the

intercom call is automatically canceled. The originating handset displays “NO

ANSWER”.

5. When finished, press the *EXIT button or INT button on either handset to deactivate

the intercom.

Receiving an Intercom Call

When you receive an intercom call, your handset beeps. To answer the call press the INT

button or TALK•CALL BACK button.

Advanced Intercom Features

Receiving an Incoming Telephone Call During an Intercom Call

(This is ONLY applicable with addition of Model 25832A optional handset)

If you receive a telephone call during an intercom call, the intercom call is immediately

terminated and both handsets ring. Either handset user may press the TALK•CALL BACK

button to answer the call.

Using Intercom with External Telephone Calls

During a telephone call, you may use the intercom/paging function to page another

handset and have an off line, private (two-way) intercom conversation. You may also

have a three-way conversation between the external caller and the handsets, or you may

transfer the external telephone call to another handset.
