MAKING CALLS
To make a call, lift the handset. Press a line
that is not in use, then dial the number. The
number appears on the display as you dial,
then the call's elapsed time appears.
When you are talking on a phone line, other
stations in the system cannot use that line.
This feature is called Call Privacy. When you
make or answer a call, you automatically
have privacy.
Selecting a Line
You can select the lines automatically or
manually. When you lift the handset or press
SPEAKER

the first available line. The line indicator on
your station lights green, and the indicator for
the same line lights red at other stations.
The line priority is set in numerical order.
LINE 1 has priority over LINE 2, LINE 3 and
LINE 4. If LINE 1 is in use, LINE 2 picks up
as you lift the handset. If LINE 1 and LINE 2
are in use, LINE 3 picks up.
If two lines are ringing at the same time and
you lift the handset, the same line priority ap-
plies.
To manually select a desired line, lift the
handset and press the desired
LINE
