How you answer a Direct Page depends on whether Handsfree Answerback is enabled and
turned on at your phone. See one of the following procedures in this guide:
• Direct Paging - Handsfree Answerback Enabled
• Direct Paging - Handsfree Answerback Disabled
Direct Paging - Handsfree Answerback Enabled
When you receive a Direct Page, Handsfree Answerback automatically establishes a Handsfree
call on your phone after a single burst of tone.
Your administrator enables or disables Handsfree Answerback on your phone. After your
administrator enables Handsfree Answerback, you can choose to turn it on or off directly from
your phone.
To turn Handsfree Answerback on:
• When your phone is idle, press (MUTE) once. The MUTE key light flashes to indicate
that Handsfree Answerback is ON.
• When a Direct Page arrives, the MUTE key light turns OFF and a Handsfree call is
automatically established.
To turn Handsfree Answerback off:
• Press the flashing (MUTE) key once. The MUTE key light turns OFF.
• To respond to a Direct Page when Handsfree Answerback is OFF, see "Direct Page -
Handsfree Answerback Disabled" elsewhere in this guide.
Note: By default, Handsfree Answerback is turned OFF at your phone. If the (MUTE) key is
OFF when your set is idle, Handsfree Answerback is OFF.
