see the LINE indicators on the telephone itself.

SETTING THE DELAY RING

The DELAY RING is useful in installations where all 4 lines are common (square) and a
receptionist is answering all calls. Each extension would activate the DELAY RING for the
desired period of time except for the receptionist.

Incoming calls would ring at the receptionist extension ONLY for the DELAY RING time. If the
receptionist doesn’t answer, after that time other extensions would begin to ring. By varying the
delay ring time, a hierarchy of back-up for the receptionist can be defined.

Most ring cycles are 6 seconds per ring. So to delay for two rings, program 12 seconds. For
three rings, program 18 seconds, and so on. Programming is in two second increments. The
default is DELAY RING OFF.

NOTE TO VOICE MAIL SUBSCRIBERS:
■ If you set the DELAY RING for LONGER than the number of rings that the voice mail waits before answering,

the phone will never ring.
