Call waiting
If you subscribe to call waiting service with your local telephone company, there will be a beep if there is an incoming call while you are already on a call. Press PHONE/FLASH to put your current call on hold and take the new call. Press PHONE/FLASH anytime to switch back and forth between calls. For more information on caller ID, see page 28.
Mute
Press MUTE/DELETE to silence the microphone. When mute is on, MUTE will show on the handset screen. You will be able to hear the caller, but your caller will not be able to hear you until you press MUTE/DELETE again and resume speaking. When mute is turned off, MICROPHONE ON will show temporarily on the handset screen. Mute is auto- matically cancelled when you end a call.
Temporary tone dialing
If you have only dial pulse (rotary) service, you can temporarily switch to touch tone dialing during a call by pressing TONE/*. This can be useful when send- ing tone signals for access to answering systems or long distance services.
After you hang up or press PHONE/FLASH (to receive a call waiting call), the telephone automatically returns to dial pulse (rotary) service.
