Introduction 
:.:i This manual serves as a helpful guide for using all the functions of 
your new telephone and as a quick reference guide. 
You may have your telephone programmed to provide an intercom 
dial tone when you lift the handset. This arrangement is known as 
“prime intercom.” You may, however, have your telephone 
programmed to provide outside line dial tone instead. This 
arrangement is known as “prime line automatic” or “idle line 
preference.” Unless otherwise noted, the following instructions are 
for telephones with prime intercom, which means that you can dial 
system feature codes as soon as you lift the handset. If your 
telephone has a different arrangement, you must obtain intercom 
dial tone before you can dial the various feature codes. To do this, 
press and release the hookswitch after you hear the outside line 
dial tone. This action places the outside line on hold and causes 
intercom dial tone to return to your telephone. 
Flashing The Hookswitch 
Pressing and releasing the hookswitch is commonly known as 
“flashing” the hookswitch or performing a FLASH. If your 
telephone has a TAP button, we recommend that you press TAP 
instead of flashing the hookswitch, since you can inadvertently 
disconnect the line by pressing and releasing the hookswitch. 
‘.. 
E 
I. If your system has the internal flash feature enabled, you can 
obtain intercom dial tone while on an outside line by flashing the 
hookswitch. However, to generate a hookflash signal on the 
outside line, you must flash for intercom and dial +K 08. With the 
internal flash feature disabled, you can flash the hookswitch while 
on an outside line to generate a flash on an outside line. However, 
you cannot flash the hookswitch to obtain intercom dial tone.
