Answering a Call
When you receive an incoming call, the incoming call is usually selected automatically. However, if you are already on a call or if you receive more than one incoming call at a time, you may need to select the call you want to answer manually. If you do not have the Go to Phone on Ringing option enabled, you must press Phone to choose a line or view call options.
Answer an incoming call in one of the following ways:
•If you are not on another call, lift the handset, or press the line button next to the incoming call, or press Speaker to answer using the speakerphone,or press Headset to answer using the headset.
•If you are on another call, from the Phone screen, scroll to the line with the incoming call and press Answer or OK, Or, press the line button next to the incoming call.
Note:
To automatically display the Phone screen whenever you receive an incoming call, set the Go to Phone Screen on Ringing option to Yes (see Call Settings).
Note:
If the Auto Hold (Communication Manager) feature is enabled by your system administrator, you can answer another call without first putting an active call on hold. If Auto Hold is not enabled, you must put your active call on hold before answering the incoming call; otherwise, you will drop the active call when you answer the other one.
