Calls ring at both phones.
You can handle a call on the standard phone by pressing buttons on the MLS- or
MLC-model telephone. For example, you can use the MLS or MLC-model phone to select a
specific Centrex line, and conduct the call on the standard phone. Or, if someone is on a
call using the standard phone, someone else can put that call on hold by pressing [
Hold
] on
the MLS- or MLC-model phone. To do this, it is not necessary to lift the handset of the MLS-
or MLC-model phone. Calls held in this way do not ring back to a standard phone at a
combination extension.
If you make a voice paging call to a combination extension with an MLS- or MLC-model
phone, only the MLS- or MLC-model phone signals.
