If you use the Background Music feature to broadcast certain copyrighted
music or material, including songs or other material from radio broadcasts,
you may be required to obtain the permission of the copyright owner. One
way to obtain permission is to contact ASCAP, BMI, and/or similar
performing rights organizations, to obtain a license. AT&T disclaims any
liability arising out of the failure to obtain such a license, if required. For
alternative (usually pre-licensed) sources of music to use with this feature,
you may wish to contact Telephonetics International, Inc. at 1-800-446-5366.
Background Music stops when a user makes or answers a call, but
resumes when the phone becomes idle again.
If a system phone and a standard phone with a message waiting light are
connected in a combination extension, the standard phone’s message
waiting light will not light if Background Music is on at the system phone.
You can program a Background Music button on a system phone to use the
feature with one touch. A button with lights is recommended.
This feature is not available on MLC-6 or standard phones.
