base or press on the base. The phone will return to the holding party.

• While a call is on hold, Call Waiting and CID on Call Waiting do not work.

Conferencing

If you have more than one handset, up to four people can participate in a conference call. A four-way conference call consists of an outside line, two handsets, and the base. You can easily join a call already in progress. The handsets must be currently connected to the same base (see page 15).

1)Press TALK/Flash or on the handset or pick up the corded

handset from the base or press on the base to join the call.

2)To hang up, return the handset to the cradle or press END on the

handset or return the corded handset to the base or press on the base. The other party will still be connected to the call.
