To answer the incoming call, tap the Line Key with the status indicator that is flashing green, or tap the Hold soft key to place the active call on hold, and then tap the Answer soft key.

To answer an incoming call on a shared line:

If you place the call on hold, anyone who shares your line can take the call by tapping the Line Key associated with the held call (represented by a flashing red status indicator).
