About Bridged Call Appearances

Your phone may show a bridged call appearance on the display screen in addition to your own call appearances. A bridged call appearance typically belongs to someone else, but bridging allows you to see if that call appearance is in use, answer calls on that call appearance, or join a call in progress on that call appearance from your telephone. You can also make outgoing calls on a bridged call appearance when it is not in use.

Answering a call on a bridged call appearance

1.Press the call/line appearance button associated with the bridged call appearance.

Note:

The ringing bridged call appearance may be selected automatically if there are no other active calls. If you are on another call when a call comes in to a bridged call appearance, you may have to select the ringing bridged call appearance button (just like for an incoming call to a primary line).

2.Press the Answer softkey.

Note:

Answering a call on a bridged call appearance is basically the same as a call on a primary line. If the ringing bridged call appearance is selected, you can answer by picking up the handset, by pressing the Speaker or Headset button, or pressing the Answer softkey.
