Arrange a Callback
If the extension you call is busy or just rings, you can set a callback. When that extension becomes free
or is next used, your phone rings. If you answer, the other extension rings.
After setting a callback you can make other calls, it will not take place while you are busy. You can only
arrange one callback at any time.
The Ringer Timeout sets how long a callback rings your extension before it cancels
(see Setting the
Ringer Timeout)
.
To arrange a Callback:
1. When
NUMBER BUSY
appears, press
SCROLL
and then
z
CALLBACK
(the option does not
appear if you already have a callback set).
2. The system ends your call attempt and your phone shows
z
CALLBACK

To cancel the Callback:
1. Press
z
CALLBACK
. You can do this even whilst the callback is taking place and your phone is
ringing.
Leave a Message

(see Answering a
Message)
. If their extension has a message lamp, it lights.
To leave a message:
1. When
NUMBER BUSY
appears, press
