Picking up a call
You hear a phone ringing in your vicinity and want to pick up the call.
With the call pick-up function you can pick up the call from the other phone on your own phone.
Using the DTMF Mode. Activating/deactivating DTMF
You want to be able to use your phone to control other equipment or to access certain services, such as
remote polling of an answering machine or telebanking. For these services you need the DTMF mode.
In the DTMF mode each key press generates a tone. If for example you key in a call number during a call,
your call partner will hear the tone signals.
You can use the configuration mode ("DTMF" menu) to specify whether the DTMF mode should be generally
activated or deactivated.
If the DTMF mode is generally deactivated, you can use the *-key to activate it temporarily (and deactivate
it again) during the call. If the DTMF mode is generally activated (factory setting), the *-key does not have
any function during the call.
Press the Menu key repeatedly until the display reads "Call pick-up".
Pick-up Press the "Pick-up" Foxkey.
The display shows the number of the phone from which you last picked up
a call.

OK Press the "OK" Foxkey.
You are now connected with the caller.
Situation You're in a call and the DTMF mode is generally deactivated. You want to
activate the DTMF mode temporarily.

pressing the "C" key.
<long> To activate the DTMF mode temporarily: Press the *-key and hold it down for a
moment.
The display reads "DTMF _". You can now enter the DTMF characters.
