Using the Privacy feature

Press FEATURE 83 to change the privacy setting on the line.

•If a line normally has privacy, this permits another telephone, which shares the line, to join your call by selecting the line while you are using it.

•If a line normally has privacy disabled, this prevents another telephone, which shares the line from joining your call by selecting the line while you are using it.

•The privacy setting is re-established when you end your call, or when you enter the Privacy feature code again.

Note: Privacy control cannot be used for internal or conference calls.

When another telephone joins a call on a non-private line, the participants on the call hear a tone, and a message appears on the display.
