Auto-redial

This phone can automatically redial a number up to ten
times. When the phone automatically redials the number,
if the prime line is available, it uses it to dial the call.
1. Follow the instructions under Redial stack (page 17) to
find the number you want to call.
2. Press a [LINE] button.
-OR-
Press [ENTER]. Scroll to AUTO REDIAL and then press
[ENTER] again.
3. The telephone will activate the speakerphone or headset
(depending on the AUTOMATIC MODE you set, page
39 of the installation guide) to call the desired number
automatically. The [(AUTO) REDIAL] light will flash.
4. When the other party answers, you will need to take an
action to speak with the other party and stop the auto-
redial attempts. Lift the handset.
-OR-
Press [ SPEAKER].
-OR-
Press [HEADSET] if the headset is connected to speak
with the other party.
While auto-redial is active:
• The telephone will activate the speakerphone or head-
set (depending on the AUTOMATIC MODE you set,
page 39 of the installation guide) and call the desired
number automatically. The [(AUTO) REDIAL] light will
flash.
• After a call is placed, if the line is busy, you will hear a
busy tone for approximately 9 seconds before the set
hangs up. Thirty seconds later, the call will be redialed.
The [(AUTO) REDIAL] light will remain on during that
30-second waiting time.
• This process will be repeated up to 10 times or until the
called number is no longer busy. If the line is still busy
after 10 attempts, no more attempts will be made.
• If the line is ringing but no party answers after two
attempts, no more attempts will be made.
• If you want to turn off the auto-redial feature during the
30-second waiting time, press [(AUTO) REDIAL].
