Placing Calls Quickly
Store numbers that you call often in Abbreviated Dialing bins (page 9). You can easily dial the stored
number with just a few key presses. To quickly retry the number you just dialed, try Last Number Redial
(page 76). If you'll need to redial the number later on, let Save Number Dialed (page 129) retain it for you.
Ever call Directory Assistance for a number and not have a pen to write it down? Use Memo Dial
(page 83) to jot the number down in your terminal's memory instead.
When You Work In Groups
If you and your co-workers handle each other's calls, you might want to be in a Department Calling group
(page 44). Someone calling your group's number goes through to anyone who's available. You can even
have Department Step Calling (page 47) send your personal calls to your group when you're not avail-
able. To answer a call already ringing a co-worker's terminal, use Group Call Pickup (page 65).
When you're on a call and you want the others in your area to listen in on the conversation, activate Group
Listen (page 66). Your co-workers hear the call through your terminal's speaker.
If you frequently call the same co-worker, you can have Ringdown (page 127) automatically call them for
you. All you have to do is lift your handset.
If You Need Privacy
When you're busy in your office and don't want to be interrupted, use Do Not Disturb (page 56).
Before talking to someone at your desk while you're on the terminal, try Microphone Cutoff (page 86).
Your caller cannot hear your voice until you cancel Microphone Cutoff.
