Using the Cortelco Colleague phone is easy. First, connect it to a power source and a phone line. When you get a call, the Caller ID will show the caller's information. You can use the Call waiting Caller ID features to manage incoming calls. To use the speakerphone, just press the speakerphone button. The mute button with LED helps you silence the microphone when needed. You can store up to 10 numbers in the direct memories for quick dialing. Use the volume control to adjust the sound level.
