To end the conference call, press LINE 1 and LINE 2 on one keypad, then press LINE 2 on the other keypad.

To hang up one line and continue talking on the other, press the line button that you want to hang up.

Note: You can also make a conference call using both the ET-687 and an exten- sion phone. (See “Using the ET-687 with Extension Phones).

USING THE ET-687 WITH EXTENSION PHONES

The ET-687 detects when an extension phone is in use, and the corresponding line indicator flashes.

To join the conversation from the hand- set or the base, press the line button for the line in use. You hear a warning tone (three long beeps). Before the warning tone ends, press the line button again.

Note: If you hang up the ET-687 when someone is still using an extension phone, the ET-687’s line indicator might not stay lit.

FLASH performs the electronic equiva- lent of a switchhook operation for special services, such as Call Waiting.

For example, if you have Call Waiting, press FLASH to answer an incoming call without disconnecting the current call. Press FLASH again to return to the first call.

Note: If you do not have any special ser- vices, pressing FLASH might disconnect the current call.

Some special services, such as bank-by- phone, require tone signals. If you have pulse service, you can still use these special tone services by following these steps.
