Call Waiting

If an incoming call arrives while you

are already engaged on a telephone

cal,l you will hear a soft beep every

5 seconds (this beep is not audible

to the person you are speaking to).

Instead of the engaged tone, the

second caller will hear an

announcement to hold on as you are

aware that there is a second call.

To use Call Waiting

•You can answer the second call,

without disconnecting your first

caller, by pressing the CALL

WAITING button. The first caller

will be put on hold.
