On-Hook Dialing
You can enter a number before you lift the handset from the cradle using on-hook dialing (also called
predialing).
The predialed number might include one or more star code options. For example, if you enter
*6714089991234 , the phone interprets each recognized star code as it parses the given number and
applies them to the call. In this case, the phone blocks the outgoing caller ID and dials +1 (408) 999-1234.
