sions. To override the area code lockouts on a particular phone with the area code permissions you have been
assigned personally:
1. Pick up any phone or otherwise get an inside line dial tone.
2. Enter . The system will ask you for your password.
3. Enter your password.
4. If your password was accepted, you will get a voice prompt and another inside dial tone.
5. Enter .
6. After receiving an outside dial tone, dial the long distance number desired.
Check with your system administrator to determine the area code lockouts and permissions in place in your
system.
Note Each inside line can be programmed by your system administrator to seize a different group of outside
lines when is dialed. You can seize a particular outside line by dialing the outside line extension
number.
