Help during a call
Press PROG/HELP while on a call and this will place the call on hold, whereupon you can use Help
mode to hear a description of the function you wish to perform. When you exit Help mode, you will
be reconnected to the call.
While you are either in Help mode or programming your phone, your station will be temporally
placed in DND (see "MUTE/DND," page A.4). Anyone calling your station while you are in DND will
be forwarded to your mailbox (or other destination set by the installer).
Exiting Help mode
To exit Help Mode, simply hang up.
Extensive user help is always available on the ESI Web site at www.esi-estech.com.

Dial tone

When you first lift your handset, you will hear an internal dial tone that allows you to call other
stations or perform other internal functions. To gain an outside dial tone, dial 9 (or 8 or 7)
a programmable feature key that has been set as a line key. (A line key, when pressed,
automatically gains an outside line. Consult your system's Administrator if you have questions.)

SPEAKER

For hands-free conversation, use the SPEAKER key.
If you press SPEAKER when an outside call rings, this will connect you to the caller via your phone's
built-in speakerphone and light the SPEAKER LED (light-emitting diode).
While using the handset, pressing SPEAKER and hanging up the handset will switch the caller to
your speaker. To revert to the handset from speakerphone mode, lift the handset again.
Group listening
To have a handset conversation along with the caller's voice broadcast over your speaker, press
SPEAKER while on a handset conversation but do not hang up the handset.
Hands-free answer (internal calls only)
You can program your phone either to enable or disable hands-free answer (PROG/HELP 3 5).
With hands-free enabled, an internal call to your station generates a short ring and a double
connect tone, then automatically connects the caller to your speakerphone.
With hands-free disabled, an internal call to your station generates a single ring cadence.
Note: Outside calls ring with a double ring cadence.

What you dial to reach an outside line depends on your system's particular setup. If you're not sure, consult your
Administrator.
