Getting Started

Welcome

The instructions in this guide are for using the Mitel 8528 Telephone on the Mitel 5000

Communications Platform (CP). The Quick Reference Guide located at the beginning of this

guide is an overview of frequently used features.

Your telephone should be powered on and ready to use. If the display is blank, or if the display

name, extension number, or time or date are incorrect, contact your system administrator for

assistance.

Because a variety of voice mail products work with the 5000 CP, this guide does not include

voice mail instructions. For voice mail instructions, refer to the voice mail user guide for your

system. For example, refer to the Enterprise Messaging, Unified Voice Messaging, and

Embedded Voice Mail Card User Guide, part number 835.3205, or the Mitel NuPoint Unified

Messaging User Guide on the Mitel Web site (http://edocs.mitel.com). Contact your system

administrator for more information about your voice mail system.

NOTE

Because many telephone features can be programmed to perform various tasks,

some features may work differently than the descriptions in this guide. Contact

your system administrator for more information.
