Service.

Responding to Call Waiting

When you’re on a call, Call Waiting alerts you of incoming
calls by sounding two beeps. Your phone’s screen informs you
that another call is coming in and displays the caller’s phone
number (if it is available and you are in digital mode).

To respond to an incoming call while you’re on a call:
