USING SPEED DIAL

Press Intercom button

Press 3 * + Speed dial code (0-9)

Note: Speed dial will by default utilize the LAST available line. In other words, if your department has four lines, and they appear on buttons 1-4, speed dial will access the line on button 4 if it is not in use. If they appear on buttons 5-8, it will access the line on button 8 if it is available. This cannot be changed.
