• pressing a line/call appearance button.
At the dial tone, enter the number you wish to call. If you are unable to
make calls within certain area codes, check with your system administrator
for any toll restrictions placed on your extension that may restrict your
access to long distance area codes or dialing prefixes.
When your party picks up, a timer appears on your display that records the
length of your call.

Headset Settings option from the Options list. For more information, see
the section "Customizing Your Phone" in the 53i Installation Guide.
