Basic and enhanced functions
You can use all of the communication platform’s basic
and enhanced functions that are offered in the dialog on
the display, in the service menu and on the function
keys.
Additional multiline and team functions
Æ page 69
These are configured by System Support. You can use
the multiline and team functions in addition to the basic
and enha nced-convenience func tions. A telephone with
line keys is identifiable by the fact that your number and
the numbers of your colleagues have been assigned to
line keys. You have access to all lines and you can also
make calls v ia several lines simultaneously.
The individual telephone can also be configured (as a
keyset) for multi-line operation, for example, for use by
nonteam members or by brokers who are in contact
with clients on s everal lines simultaneously.
Additional executive/secretary functions
Æ page 86
These are configured by System Support. You can use
the executive/secretary functions in addition to the basic and enhanced-convenience functions. A telephone
with an executive/secretary configuration is identifiable
by the executive or secretary line keys for d irect calls to
the executive or to the secretary’s office. An executive/
secretary telephone also has an intercept key, while a
secretary’s telephone ha s a pickup and a deputy key.

How to make best use of your telephone
•No doubt you have colleagues or outside business
associates to whom y ou make frequent calls. You
can save a great dea l of time and effort by storing
these numbers on keys (Storing a speed dialing
number on a key Æ page 48).
•All too often the number you have dialed is busy. But
afterwards you are extremely busy and completely
forget to try calling it again. Our advice: make a habit
of using the Callback function(Æ page 40).
