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 talk or speaker button to put the current call on hold and answer the incoming call. Press the talk or speaker button to return to the original call.
