Call Waiting

If an incoming call arrives while you are already
engaged on a telephone call, you will hear a soft
beep every 5 seconds (this beep is not audible
to the person you are speaking to).

Instead of the engaged tone, the second caller
will hear an announcement to hold on as you are
aware that there is a second call.

You can answer the second call, without
disconnecting your first caller, by
pressing the

button. The first caller

will be put on hold.

When you have spoken to the second
caller you can return to the first caller
by pressing the

button again. You can

switch back and forth between the 2 calls
without disconnecting either if you wish.

If you wish to disconnect the first call,
press the

TALK

button after speaking to

the first caller.

The handset will then ring. Press the

TALK

button again and continue with

the second caller.

The second caller will only be charged
for their call from the moment you
answer and not while they are waiting
for your initial contact.

To use the 1471 feature

This service lets you easily find who called your
number last.

Press the

TALK

button and wait for a

dialling tone.

Press the

1471

button. You hear the

number of your last caller announced
and the time they called. If a call is made
and the caller withholds their number,
the time of the call is still stored but not
the number.

Press the

TALK

button again – or replace

the handset on the base – to return to
standby.
