About Calls
At any time, only one active call may be in progress on your phone. The active
call is the one that has audio associated with it. In addition to an active call,
your phone can handle up to seven other calls, including conference calls, on
hold. Your phone can handle a total of eight calls at one time.
Placing Calls
You can place a call off-hook (with a dial tone), or on-hook (without a dial
tone). If you place a call off-hook, you have the option of dialing a contact
using a URL or IP address, if this feature is enabled for your phone. You can
also place calls (on-hook and off-hook) using speed dial numbers (see Placing
Calls Using Speed Dials on page 3-3).
The phone displays the duration of active calls on the phone screen. The
following figure shows an active call to Jane Smith at directory number 1951
that has lasted for nine seconds.
To place a call off-hook (to dial a phone number, IP address, or URL):
1. To obtain a dial tone, press or the New Call soft key.
2. Do one of the following:
— To dial a phone number, enter the phone number of the party you
want to call.
— To dial an IP address or URL, press the URL soft key, and then enter

To enter the number and letters displayed on a key, press the key one
or more times quickly. To enter “@”, press the # key. To enter “.”,

Placing calls using an IP address or URL may not be enabled for your phone. When
