sion telephone on the same line picks up the call. If you don’t hang up the
handset after you have put a call on hold and that call is picked up by someone
at another extension, the call is taken off hold but remains connected to your
telephone. If this happens, any background noise from your area will be heard
by the caller and the person at the other extension.

Saving a feature and light in memory keys

You can make the set indicator light come on when you turn a feature on and go off
when you turn that same feature off. You can only do this with one feature, and the
feature must have separate On and Off codes (such as Call Forwarding).

For example, you may want the light to remind you that you have turned Call For­warding on. To do this, use one key to turn the indicator light on when you activate
the feature. Use the second key to turn the indicator light off when you deactivate that
same feature. The following procedure shows you how to program a FeatureLight On
and Off key.

You must subscribe to your telephone company for Custom Calling Features.

Set Area Code

The 9116LP allows you to save an up to three digit area code that will be stripped
when dialing a number from the Callers List. For example, if you enter your own area
code using this option, any Callers List entries with your same area code will be dialed
as a seven digit number, even though they will appear on the display with the area
code showing. For example, let’s assume your area code was 111, and you set this
area code using this option. Any number in the Callers List with the same 111 area
code would be dialed out from the Callers List as a seven digit number, without dial­ing the area code. Note that the number would still appear in the Callers List and on
the display with the full number, but when dialed would appear on the first line of the
display screen as a seven digit number.

Feature ON.

To set the area code:

1. Press I.

2. Use W or V until it indicates SET AREA CODE.

3. Press K. Display indicates three positions - - -.

4. Use V and W to select a digit. Use T and U to move to the next position.

device, such as a lamp.
