To enable hoteling on a specific device, press the GuestIn button from the soft keys. Then follow the prompts to enter your home extension and voicemail access number when prompted. If the GuestIn button does not appear, that indicates the extension does not have hoteling enabled.

The hoteling system will reset automatically and dissociate the guest after 12 hours. So, if you are working remotely for multiple days, you will need to set yourself as a guest every day.
