Phone, you can make/receive intercom and outside calls and make emergency calls.
Intercom Calls
Your extension number allows other people to place intercom calls to you, without
dialing any extra codes. And, because every phone in your phone system is assigned
an extension number, you can call other people in your system quickly and easily.
NOTE: Ask your system administrator for a list of extensions.
Placing Intercom Calls
To place an intercom call:
1. Lift the handset and dial an extension number.
2. If your call goes through handsfree to a phone’s speaker, speak after your party
answers.
If you hear continuous ringing, wait for the call to be answered.

Press before dialing the extension number.
