Availability of Functions
Usually the most convenient way to activate the functions on your phone is to use the Foxkey. This applies
in particular to phones with an integrated display whose Foxkey is assigned with a multitude of useful
functions to suit every situation.
The following applies irrespective of whether a phone has a display or a corresponding Foxkey allocation:
You can activate any of the functions supported by the system by using */# procedures on your phone.
This also applies to all other commercially available ISDN and analogue telephones.
Information on All the Functions
Unlike the Operating Instructions the Functions Guide contains a description of all the functions supported by the system.
The following pages contain two overviews of these functions:
• Using Supplementary Features for More Efficiency
• Personalizing your Phone
These two overviews tell you which functions are provided by the system for each particular application.
The functions are categorised according to application and are sorted according to importance.

You want to make a call by entering a name.
With Quickdial you only need to press the digit keys for each letter once, even though each key is assigned
several letters. A clever algorithm provides quick search results.
Requirement: The name and the corresponding phone number have to be stored on the phone or in the
system.
The surname and first name have to be separated by a space, for example "no s" (6 6 # 7) for Noble
Stephen. Use the #-key to enter spaces. Ask your system administrator whether you should start with the
surname or the first name.
Dialling by Name
You want to make a call by entering a name.
The dialling-by-name function is provided specifically for this purpose. You can look up the name in the
phone's or the system's phone book.
The surname and first name have to be separated by a space, for example "no s" for Noble Stephen. Use
the #-key to enter spaces. Ask your system administrator whether you should start with the surname or
the first name.
Dialling with the Alpha Keyboard
You have connected an Alpha keyboard to your phone and want to make a call by entering a name.
The Alpha keyboard is a convenient way to find a phone book entry. All you have to do is enter the first
letter with the Alpha keyboard. Dialling by name is automatically activated.
The surname and first name have to be separated by a space, for example "no s" for Noble Stephen. Ask
your system administrator whether you should start with the surname or the first name.

Your phone has automatically stored the person's phone number in the call list. You can now call the
person back using the call list.

You want to call back someone whose call you answered.
Your phone automatically stored the person's phone number on the list of answered calls. You can call
the person back using the list of answered calls.
