paged person dials 56 from any phone. The paged person will be au-
tomatically connected with you.

can park the call and page the requested party:

parked at your station.

include your station number, for example, “Mr. Smith, park 201.”

RETRIEVING A PARKED CALL
To retrieve a call that has been parked for you:
• Lift the handset.
• Dial 10 plus the station number that was announced. You will be con-
nected to the parked call.
SETTING A MESSAGE INDICATION
When you are calling another station and no one answers or you receive a
busy signal, you can set a message indication at that station. The MES-
SAGE key on keysets will flash and standard telephones will receive special
dial tone.
• Hookflash and dial 43.
• Receive confirmation tone and hang up.
If the keyset you are calling is in the Auto Answer mode, you must use the
following procedure:
• Hang up for at least two seconds.
• Lift the handset.
• Dial 41 plus the extension number.
• Receive confirmation tone and then hang up.
NOTE: A station can have up to and including five message indications. If
you receive dial tone instead of confirmation tone, there are already five mes-
sages at this station. Try again later.
RETURNING MESSAGES
When you lift the handset and receive special dial tone, another station has
left a message for you. To return messages:
• Lift the handset.
• Dial 43. The first station that left you a message will be called automat-
ically. If it is not answered, your message indication will remain.
• Repeat the prior step until all messages have been returned in the or-
der received.
• Dial tone will return to normal when all messages have been returned.
