If you want to hang up one line and continue talking on the other, press the line button that you want to hang up.

Note: You can also make a conference call using both the ET-686 and an exten- sion phone. (See “Using the ET-686 with Extension Phones.”)

USING THE ET-686 WITH EXTENSION PHONES

The ET-686 detects when an extension phone is in use, and the corresponding line indicator flashes.

To join the conversation from the hand- set or base, press the line button for the line in use. You hear a busy tone: before the tone ends, press the line button again.

Note: If you hang up the ET-686 and someone is still on that line on an exten- sion, the ET-686’s line indicator(s) might not stay lit.

USING REDIAL

You can quickly dial the last number di- aled on either line 1 or line 2. When you hear a dial tone, press REDIAL/PAUSE on the base or REDIAL on the handset.

REDIAL/PAUSE

REDIAL

Notes:

Each keypad has a separate redial memory. You cannot redial a num- ber you dialed on one keypad using the redial key on the other.

The redial memory is common to both lines. You can redial the num- ber you originally dialed on Line 1 using Line 2, as long as you use the same keypad you dialed the number on earlier.

The redial memory holds up to 32 digits, so you can redial long dis- tance as well as local numbers.
