Holding a Call

You can use this function to put a current call on "hold" to prevent the party at the other end of the line from hearing an internal consultation for instance.

The "Hold" function must be activated by the ad- ministrator.

If you have a multiline telephone and proceed as described in this section, the held party can be picked up by any other multiline user with the same line key. If you do not want the held party to be picked up, you must put the party on "Con- sultation hold" page 47.

Using the Menu

Prerequisite: You are in the middle of a call. Select and confirm.

The call is placed on hold. The held party’s number and the message "On Hold" appear on the display.

After a configurable time interval, a double tone signal reminds you that the party is still on hold and the mes- sage "Still on Hold" appears on the display.

If the held line is displayed on one or two other multiline telephones, the double tone is signalled on all of these telephones.

Confirm this option to resume the held call. You may now either initiate a consultation call or terminate the call.
