Understanding Lines vs. Calls

To avoid confusion about lines and calls, refer to these descriptions:

Lines—Each corresponds to a directory number or intercom number that others can use to call
you. Your phone can support up to eight lines. To see your phone lines, look at the right side of
your touchscreen. You have as many lines as you have directory numbers and phone line
icons
