NOTE: The handset earpiece volume setting (1-5) and speakerphone volume setting (1-6) are independent. Changing one does not affect the other.

Join a call in process

You can use two system handsets at the same time on an outside call. If a handset is already on a call and you would like to join the call, press PHONE/FLASH or SPEAKER on another system handset.

To exit the call, press OFF/CLEAR or place the handset in the telephone base or charger. The call does not end until all handsets hang up.

Chain dialing

While on a call, you can initiate a dialing sequence from numbers stored in the directory, caller ID history or redial list. Doing this can be useful if you wish to access other numbers (such as bank account numbers or access codes) from the directory, caller ID history or redial list.

To dial a number from the directory, caller ID history or redial list while on a call, access the number through the menu system:

. While on a call, to show the directory or caller ID history, press MENU/SELECT, scroll to >DIRECTORY or >CALL LOG. Press MENU/SELECT.

-OR-

While on a call, press REDIAL/PAUSE to show the redial list.

3.Press MENU/SELECT. The selected number is dialed.

Redial

Each handset stores the 20 numbers most recently called in the redial list.

. To review and call numbers in the redial list, press REDIAL/PAUSE in idle mode. The most recently called number appears on the screen.

2.If it is not the desired number, press DIR or CID to scroll through the numbers in the list.

3.Once the desired number appears, press PHONE/FLASH or SPEAKER to dial the number, or press OFF/CLEAR to exit the redial list.
