If the phone is busy when you place an intercom call, you can do any of the follow-
ing:
To stay on the line and wait for the phone to become available: Do not hang up.
After a system timer expires, you hear music until the phone is available. (You
cannot do this if the called phone is in do-not-disturb mode.)
To request a callback (queue on to the phone): Press and hang up. When the
phone is available, your phone rings. (To cancel the queue request before the call-
back, press .)
To use the Off-Hook Voice Announce feature (if the called phone is programmed
for it): Do not hang up. After the busy signals stop, you are automatically con-
nected and may speak. (If you hear music, or if the phone is in do-not-disturb
mode, your off-hook voice announce call will not go through.) This allows you to
talk to the phone user on his or her handsfree speakerphone, even though the user
already has a call in progress on the handset. This feature is not available if the
calling phone has the Ring Intercom Always feature enabled.
