Making Calls
This section describes ways to make calls on your 53i phone, using your handset,
speakerphone or headset.

Dialing a Number

First, take the phone off-hook by:
lifting the handset
pressing or
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.
If the Live DialPad option is on, as soon as you press the first digit on the dial pad the
phone automatically selects the next available line, go off-hook and dial as digits are
pressed.
Note: After dialing the number, the phone has a short delay before sending the
call. To send the call immediately, you can press the "#" key immedi-
ately after dialing the number. The phone sends the call without delay.
