If you were talking with the speakerphone, the call is placed on hold. The red Hold light is turned on when a call is on hold.

2.To continue the conversation, pick up the handset and press the Speaker button. If using headphones, press the headset button.

3.If handset is not placed in the cradle after hold, press the Hold button again to un-hold.
