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

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