To join the conversation from the handset or
base, press the line button for the line in use.
While the busy tone is sounding, press the
line button again.
Note:
If you hang up the phone and some-
one is still on that line on an extension, the
phone’s line indicator(s) might not stay lit.

numbers dialed on the handset using either
line 1 or line 2. Repeatedly press

on the handset until the number de-
sired appears, then press

Notes:
Each keypad has a separate redial
memory. You cannot redial a number
you dialed on one keypad using the
redial key on the other.
You can redial the number you originally
dialed on Line 1 using Line 2, as long as
you use the same keypad as previous.
The redial memory holds up to 32 digits,
so you can redial long distance as well
as local numbers.

a switchhook operation for special services,
such as Call Waiting.

Note:
If you do not have any special servic-
es, pressing

current call.
