MAKING AND RECEIVING CALLS
Making and receiving calls is the basic purpose of any phone. With your phone, you
can make/receive intercom and outside calls and make emergency calls.
Intercom Calls
Your extension number allows other people to place intercom calls to you, without
dialing any extra codes. And, because every phone in your phone system is assigned
an extension number, you can call other people in your system quickly and easily.
NOTE:
Ask your System Administrator for a list of extensions.
