1) During a call, press [delete/transfer]. This places the call on hold.

3) The handset display shows LINE ON HOLD along with the number of the handset you are paging. Both your handset and the paged handset sound a paging tone that is distinct from any of the available ringer tones.

muted. If you want to re-activate the earpiece or speakerphone, remove the headset plug.

You can purchase headsets from our website at www.uniden.com or by calling our Parts Department (See the back cover page).

5) Using Caller ID and Call Waiting

If you subscribe to Caller ID from your phone company, your phone will show you the caller's phone number and name (if available) whenever a call comes in.
