Additional call during an existing call
You can answer or reject an additional call during an existing call. If you do not want
to be disturbed by additional calls, you can deactivate a second call during an ongo-
ing call or while the phone is idle.
Answering an additional call
You receive a second call while talking to
another party. You hear a special alerting
tone.
Press the function key F1 “Interchange”.
You are now connected to the calling party.
The first partner waits and cannot hear
your other conversation.
You may now:
– toggle between the two partners (
→
p. 48),
– transfer the call (
→
p. 47).
Rejecting an additional call
Select the menu item “Refuse call”.
The caller hears the busy signal.
Note:
Activate ”Second call off” if you do not want
to receive an additional call.
Permanently refusing an additional call
Select the menu item ”Second call On”
from the “Setting the telephone” menu and
set it to ”Off”. This permanently activates
the ”No knocking” function, and all addi-
tional callers hear the busy tone. Anyone
who attempts to reach you while this func-
tion is enabled is entered in the call list.
Deactivate:
Set the menu item ”Second call” back to
”On”.
Note:
Further information on how to activate and
deactivate knocking prevention in idle
mode may be found in the chapter “
Setting
the telephone
” on p. 75.
