• You can change your ring setting here

• Don’t use speakerphone if you are in a room with others – it is disturbing
• If transferring a call you can actually press transfer – dial extension and transfer – this is called a blind transfer – be kind to callers and introduce or provide and explanation to the person you are transferring to before sending the caller
• If you place a call on hold and another call comes in on that same line and several are answering that same line, be sure to pick up the new call coming in – not someone else’s call on hold – it is annoying to callers
• If you press the line button twice – soft keys “disappear” – press line button again to see proper menu
