The MULTI 4 offers the user many powerful features not available when
telephones are connected through ordinary parallel extensions.
Furthermore, this has been achieved without sacrificing the incomparable
economy and versatility offered by simple, standard telephones.
Because of this, your telephone keypad is called on to perform many more
functions than the customer dialling of another subscribers number. The
telephone now has a second function as a control panel, putting options such
as intercom / outside line and hold / transfer at your fingertips.
Fortunately, the MULTI 4 has been designed so that the control functions are
simple to perform and easy to remember. Nevertheless, it is necessary to be
a little more careful when using the MULTI 4 than when using a basic
telephone.
This is because wrongly or inadvertently dialled digits which normally are
easily corrected merely by replacing the handset can program the MULTI 4 to
an undesired mode.
For instance , if you should start to dial an outside number without first dialling
9, you may accidentally set Priority or Do not Disturb. If you suspect that this
has happened, you can quickly cancel these settings by raising your handset
and dialling 70, as described later in this guide.
