How to make best use of your tele- phone

•No doubt you have colleagues or outside business associates to whom you make frequent calls. You can save a great deal of time and effort by storing

these numbers on keys (Storing a speed dialing number on a key Æ page 48).

•All too often the number you have dialedis busy. But afterwards you are extremely busy and completely

forget to try calling it again. Our advice: make a habit of using the Callback function(Æ page 40).
