Consultation / Hold
The “Consultation/Hold” feature allows you to place an ex-
isting call on hold. You then may consult with someone else
at your workplace or dial a second call. The party on hold
does not hear the second conversation. Once you have fin-
ished the consultation, you can return to the original con-
nection.

follows:
