Speed Dial
Speed-dial features allow you to place a call by pressing a button or entering a code. Before you can
use speed-dial features on your phone, you must set up speed-dial on your User Options Web pages.
Depending on setup, your phone can support these speed-dial features:
• Speed-Dial Buttons—Allow you to quickly dial a phone number from one or more line buttons set
up for speed dialing.
If your system administrator has set up the Line Status feature, you can monitor the status of a
speed-dial line by using the line status indicators.
• Speed-Dial Codes—Allow you to dial a phone number from a code (sometimes referred to as
abbreviated dialing).
