Introducing The Telephone

Your system may be programmed to provide an intercom dial tone when you lift
the handset. This arrangement is known as “prime intercom.” Your telephone
may, however, be programmed to provide outside line dial tone instead. This
arrangement is known as “prime line automatic” or “idle line preference.” The
instructions included herein are written for telephones with “prime intercom,”
which means that you can dial the system feature codes as soon as you lift the
handset. If your telephone is arranged otherwise, you must obtain intercom dial
tone before you can dial the various feature codes. To obtain an intercom dial

tone, press and release the hookswitch after you hear the outside line dial tone.

This action either drops the outside line and causes intercom dial tone to return

to your telephone.

Pressing and releasing the hookswitch is commonly known as flashing the
hookswitch or performing a FLASH. If your telephone is equipped with a TAP
button, you can press it to cause the same effect as performing a FLASH.

If you lift your handset and do not immediately hear dial tone, wait on line a few

seconds for the system to return dial tone to your telephone.
