Using Standard dial
Standard dial lets you make a call by selecting a line and dialing the
number. If you have a prime line, it is selected automatically when
you lift the receiver or press
© .
You cannot use Standard dial on an M7100 telephone unless you
pick up the receiver first. If you have an M7100 telephone, use the
Automatic dial or Pre-dial feature for on-hook dialing.
Using Automatic dial
Automatic dial lets you 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 lets you 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.
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.
