Never allow the telephone to come into contact with staining or aggressive liquids such as
coffee, tea, juice, or soft drinks.
For information on telephone maintenance Æ page 94.
CE Mark
The telephone conforms to EU directive 1999/5/EG, as attested by the CE mark.

Accessing Functions
Functions You Can Use
Basic and Enhanced Functions
You can use all basic and enhanced T-Octopus F 200/400/600 functions that appear interactively on the screen, in the Program/Service menu, and when you press function keys.
Additional Team and Executive/Secretary Functions
Æ page 73f.
To help working and project groups work together more efficiently, the service technician
can configure a variety of team functions, depending on your preferences when working in
the team. You can use these team functions in addition to the basic and enhanced functions.
In addition to call pickup, hunting groups (group call), and call distribution groups, you can
also set up teams with multiple lines per telephone.
You can tell if a telephone has trunk keys if your station number and the numbers of your colleagues are programmed on trunk keys. You can access all lines and can also conduct different calls simultaneously on multiple lines.
Another team function category includes the executive/secretary
functions, which are configured by the service technician. You can use executive and secretary functions in addition to the basic and enhanced functions as well as other team functions.
An executive/secretary telephone has DSS keys for the executive or secretary, trunk keys for
the executive and secretary, as well as ring transfer keys.
Using the Telephone Efficiently
• You probably have certain colleagues or external parties with whom you talk on the
phone especially frequently. To dial these numbers faster and more conveniently, you
can save them on keys
(Saving station numbers for repertory dialing on keys Æ page 50).
• All too often you reach a busy line when dialing a number. Amid the confusion of your
working day, it’s easy to forget to try the number again later on. To avoid this, make it a
habit to use the "Callback" (Æ page 44) function.
The specific call signal with which your telephone rings indicates the
type of call:
• When you receive an internal call, your telephone rings once
every four seconds (single-tone sequence).
• When you receive an external call, your telephone rings twice in
rapid succession every four seconds (dual-tone sequence).
• When you receive a call from the entrance telephone, your telephone rings three times in rapid succession every four seconds
(triple-tone sequence).
• If a call is waiting, you hear a short tone (beep) every six seconds.
The number or the name of the caller appears on the display.
