A conference call is initiated as a normal telephone call between yourself and another
person. It does not matter who initiated the call. Thereafter, for each additional person
you want to add to the conference, press the LINE 1/2 key and call that person. Once
he or she has answered, you may consult privately before bringing him or her into the
conference. When you are ready, press the SET/CONF key to add that person to the
conference. You may repeat this process (LINE 1/2, place call, SET/CONF) up to the
capacity of your telephone or the conference server. When you hang up, you leave the
conference but the other participants remain in the conference until they hang up.
