Note: If you place a muted call on hold, the phone automatically takes the call off
mute when you reconnect to the call.
Receiving Calls
When a call is ringing at your extension, you see the Inbound Call Screen. The line/
call appearance light flashes quickly for the incoming call.
Answering an Incoming Call
Calls can be answered using the phone handset, the speakerphone, or the headset (for
models supporting a headset).
To answer an incoming call do one of the following.
• Lift the handset for handset operation.
• Press
for handsfree operation on model 6751i RP or press the line/call
appearance button for the incoming call.
• Press
for handsfree or headset operation on models 6753i RP and
6757i CT RP or press the line/call appearance button for the incoming call.
Note: For models 6753i RP and 6757i CT RP the audio mode setting you have
selected in the options list under
Headset Settings
determines if the call goes to
handsfree or headset operation. For more information, see the section
"Customizing Your Phone" in the Aastra Phone Installation Guide.
If the phone is already connected to a call, answering the new incoming call
automatically places the existing call on hold. To reconnect to a party, press the line/
call appearance button for that call.
If you cannot answer the call, the caller goes to voicemail if voicemail has been
configured for your extension.
Note: The
button can be used to cancel the call pickup procedure.
Sending an Incoming Call to Voicemail
You can send an incoming call directly to voicemail without answering the call. To do
this, press
without picking up the handset.
If you're already on the phone your incoming call goes directly to voicemail. Your
phone screen displays a voicemail icon (
) along with the number of waiting
messages, if you have unheard messages
(example: "
x4", or "4 New Messages"
).
