Continuous Redial
Get through to busy numbers as soon as they hang up. |
| How it works: |
| You can save time by not dialing busy numbers over and over. Your phone rings you as
soon as the line is free, and automatically connects you. |
| 1. |
 |
When you hear a busy signal, press and release the “switchhook.”
Listen for a special tone. |
| 2. |
 |
If you’ve already hung up, lift the handset and listen for a normal
dial tone. |
| 3. |
 |
 |
|
Press *66,. (On a rotary phone, dial 1166.) |
| 4. |
 |
If the line is still busy, hang up. Your phone will check the number for up to 30
minutes. |
| 5. |
 |
A special callback ring alerts you if the line becomes free (some phones ring
normally). |
| 6. |
 |
Lift the handset to automatically place the call. |

phone. |
