| phone). To avoid this, you can transfer the conference to another |

| remove parties; however, the conference continues with the estab- |
| lished participants. |

Tips
•Calls must be on the same line before you can add them to a standard conference call. If calls are on different lines, transfer them to a single line before using Confrn or Join.
•If you get an error stating, “No Participant Info” when attempting to use Join, be sure that you have selected at least one call in addition to the active call, which is selected automatically.
•Depending on how your phone is configured, if you leave a conference after creating it, the conference might end. See the last row of the above table for more information.
