Incoming call selection (call filtering)

The built-in call filter allows you to select how specific incoming calls should be handled. From the
existing entry card, you select an entry as a filter entry. For incoming calls your telephone automati-
cally checks the caller's data against the filter entries and responds according to your programmed
settings.
The following responses can be programmed:
– Permanently reject caller
– Activate the "Busy" signal
– Forward the call directly, i.e. without any ringing, to the telephone answering machine
(provided the answering machine is switched on and on standby, see also "Telephone answering
machine", Page 55)
– Play back special announcement, irrespective of called MSN.
You can specify which calls are to be subject to these filter settings. The filter settings can apply either:
– To filter entries defined by you. or
– To all other calls except the filter entries defined by you.
The "Call filter on" function is represented in the display by the pictogram ≥.
