USING THE MULTI 4
In Case Of Difficulty
These notes should be of assistance, if you ever encounter any difficulty in
using the MULTI 4.
Remember that an outside call cannot be made from a call barred extension
(other than a 9 999 or 9 112 call) - make sure that the Call Barring settings
are set to your requirements.
Be careful not to leave an outside call on hold by accident. If in doubt press
recall to check. If public network dial tone is received, clear the system by
replacing the handset.
Ensure that call intercept is set correctly, and not set accidentally. If in doubt
dial 70 at any extension to cancel.
Ensure that do not disturb has not been set accidentally. Cancel by lifting
and replacing the handset at the relevant extension.
Replace the handset after an outside call even if the other party clears down
first and you receive dial tone.
Remember the timing features of the system:
When originating an outside call you must wait at least twenty seconds after
dialling the last digit, before attempting to place a call on hold.
When an outside call is put on hold and the extension replaced, the outside
call will remain on hold for up to two minutes. During this time the call can
only be accessed from the original extension.
At the end of the preset time the line will be released and the system reset.
If, after investigating the above possibilities, you still cannot obtain an outside
line, proceed as follows:
Switch off the mains power to the MULTI 4, and after waiting at least ten
seconds switch on again. If the fault has not cleared, unplug the MULTI 4
from the Exchange line socket, and plug in the Extension 1 phone in its place.
If dial tone is still not obtained, try a second telephone. If this is unsuccessful
then the line may be assumed to be faulty, and you should contact the
telephone company e.g. BT.
