7.4 Consultation / Hold
The “Consultation/Hold” feature allows you to place an
existing call on hold. You then may consult someone else at
your workplace or dial a second call. The party on hold does
not hear the second conversation. Once you have finished
the consultation, you can return to the original connection.
To place a call on hold and then reactivate it, proceed as
follows:
If you return to Caller No. 1 by pressing the Hold button, the
connection to Caller No. 2 is not cleared down until Caller No. 2
hangs up. Connection charges continue to accrue.
Call No. 1
P
You are talking to Caller No.1.
R
Press the Hold button. Caller No.1 is now on hold
and you can consult someone else.
M
To dial a second call, simply dial either the desired
extension number or the outside line access “0”
followed by the desired external number.
Call No. 2
P
If the call is answered, you can consult on this line.
The original caller is still on hold.

If the number you dialed is busy or the call is not
answered, press the Hold button again to return to
Call No. 1.

To switch back to Call No. 1 after talking on the
