THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

USER ORIENTATION
Lifting the handset on your telephone will provide Samsung DS 616 system
dial tone. This is also referred to as internal or intercom dial tone. To get an
outside line from the telephone company, dial an access code, usually the
digit "9." To call another station in your system, simply dial its extension
number. See your system directory list for other access codes and extension
numbers.
HOOKFLASH
Throughout this guide, you will see references to "hookflash." A hookflash is
a momentary operation of the hookswitch required for a feature operation.
Some telephones have a FLASH or RECALL key. This key may be pressed
instead of the hookswitch.
C.O. LINES
Lines from the telephone company are "C.O. lines." Calls on these lines are
referred to as "outside calls." These C.O. lines are accessed by dialing an
access code. For example, dial 9 to get a local outside line or dial 80–82 for
other line groups. Each line in the system is numbered beginning with 701,
and then 702, 703, etc. To get a specific line, dial its three digit line number.
If Least Cost Routing (LCR) is programmed into the system, you will only be
required to dial 9.
DISTINCTIVE RINGING
Samsung DS 616 provides distinctive ring patterns to your phone:
• Outside calls have a single ring tone repeated.
• Intercom calls have a double ring tone repeated.
• Door phone calls and alarm/appointment reminders have a triple ring
tone repeated.
