Using the Soft Keys on a Large-Display Phone
The ten small keys located alongside the display on a large-display phone are
called “soft” keys because they allow you to change the software mode of the
display. Instead of displaying the Main Menu, for instance, you can set your
phone to display your Personal or System Speed Dial Directory, Extension
Directory, or Function or Help Menus.
These items are described as follows:
To select one of the above items from the Main Menu, press the soft key next
to the desired item.
Notes:
To display the Main Menu on a large-display phone, press the MENU
key when the phone is in an idle state.
Menus are programmable - the actual menu displayed depends on your
system configuration.
