The network will notify you that the conference call has been created and
the phone will return to the In-Call display, with the message.
You can repeat the procedure described above to add up to a total of five
remote parties to the conference call.
Once a conference call has been established you can treat it as a normal
call. For example, if you need to make another call you can place the
conference call on hold and make another call in the normal way.

The display will show the first entry in the call list, for example:
The first line of the display shows the call number allocated to the remote
party, this will be in the range of 1 to 5. If available, the call identifier
(name) and telephone number will also be displayed. If these are
unavailable (which is only possible with incoming calls), a message
identifying the direction of the call will be displayed such as ‘Incoming’.
The bottom line of the display shows the state of the call, this is either
‘Connected’, ‘On Hold’, ‘Call Held’ or ‘Hung Up’.
If ‘On Hold’ is
displayed, the remote party has placed the call on hold. If ‘Call Held’ is
displayed, you have placed the conference call on hold. If ‘Hung Up
’
is
displayed, the remote party has hung up and the network has not
terminated the call but suspended it instead.

details for each participant in turn. If you hold a
