Setting line interruption

The Hook Flash period is set in the device by the factory, if you have selected the correct country, in which you op- erate your device. If you cannot call special functions or dial outside from an extension, you must probably change the Hook Flash time (country and network-dependent).

2Using the [ key, select the length of the Hook Flash signal to the switching centre in the public switched tel- ephone network (PSTN). Change this setting, if you cannot call additional telephone functions such as call on hold, three-way call or forwarding.
