Call Waiting Caller ID

Provided you subscribe to Call Waiting Caller ID service from your phone company; if you receive an incoming call and you are using the GE multi handset system, a beep indicates the presence of a Call Waiting call on the line.

When you hear the call waiting beep in the handset receiver, press the FLASH/exit button to put the current call on hold and answer the incoming call. Press FLASH/exit again to return to the original call.
