• Priority Ring – The call screening feature allows users to designate
specific callers as important enough to ring through to their telephone
even if Do Not Disturb is activated. A different ring tone is provided for
calls assigned the Priority Call option. See “Priority Call” on page 43.
Group Speed Dial
This feature provides additional speed dialing capabilities beyond those provided
by the Abbreviated Dial feature. With Group Speed Dialing, you have access to a
common speed dial list of up to 1,000 entries managed by your service provider.
Group Speed Dial numbers are extension numbers that have been programmed to
dial another number, usually an external number. Your service provider will provide
you with a list of Group Speed Dial numbers and their destinations.
Hold
This feature lets you place a call on hold. While a call is holding, the holding party
occupies the associated line.
1. During a conversation, press the Hold button ( ). Depending on your
system configuration, the party may hear music, a recorded announcement,
or silence while holding.
2. To resume the conversation, press the red blinking line button.
NOTE: Starting one minute after the party is on hold, and occurring each minute after
that, you will hear 3 ring sounds. This is to remind you that you have a call on
hold.
For more details on handling two calls at once, see “Switching Between Held Calls”
on page 28.
Hold-on Queuing
This feature allows you to wait for a busy outgoing line to become available.
When you try to make an external call and all outgoing lines are unavailable, you
will hear a recorded announcement.
• Hold for a line to become available.
• When a line becomes available, the system automatically dials the
external number for you.
