Second incoming call
With the call-waiting feature enabled , you can use the tele-
phone to receive a second incoming call without disconnecting the
first caller.
When you pick up the new call, the previous caller will be put on
background hold and the connection to the new caller becomes
the active connection.
Alternately, you may turn down the new call offer, in which case
the existing connection remains the active one. In this case the
new caller will hear a busy signal.
Picking up a second call
While you are on the line speaking to your first caller, the active
connection is displayed. If a second call comes in, you will see:
The first caller will be kept on hold as long as you keep the con-
nection with the second one.
The second call is ended and the first call is resumed.
