Phone with Multiple Lines
If you have multiple lines, it is recommended that you use the All Calls button to view all calls on
all lines.
If you handle many calls at one time, it is recommended that you use the Answer button to answer the
oldest incoming call without having to scroll down the call list and select the call.
For more information, see your system administrator.

Line label

Header
Displays the date and time, and information (such as phone number) about
the selected line.
(If you are on a call and highlight the header instead of a call, the softkeys
that display are the same as those that display when the phone is idle. This
is useful, for example, if you want to access the
Forward All
or
New Call
softkeys while you are on a call.)
