CALL PILOT # 337-7400 EXPRESS MESSAGING # 337-7484

To make a call to an extension, dial the 4-digit extension number, also known as the Directory Number or DN. To make a call outside, dial 9 and the number. If the call is in another area code, don't forget to dial a "1". For example, 9-1-609-234-5678, 9-1-800-123-4567, etc.

EXTERNAL DIALING CAPABILITIES

?

Each phone will have the same external dialing capabilities with the new system. If you were required to dial an authorization code in the past, the same is true with the new system installation. Authorization codes have remained the same.

INCOMING CALLS

?

You will be able to distinguish an incoming external call from an internal call. An external call rings "RING-RING-PAUSE, RING-RING-PAUSE", while an internal call rings normally, "RING-PAUSE, RING-PAUSE". If you do not answer a call, depending on how your set is programmed, the call may be directed to your mailbox or to another extension.
