Accessing Options During a Call
Your phone provides a number of control functions that
you can use during a call.
Switching the Microphone Off (Mute)
You can temporarily switch your phone’s microphone
off, so that the other party cannot hear you.
Example: You wish to say something to another person
in the room but do not want the calling party
to hear you.
To switch the microphone off temporarily, press
the
key during a call.
The Mute icon (
) appears on the bottom line of the
display and your correspondent can no longer hear you.
To switch the microphone back on, press the
key
again. The Mute icon disappears.
Putting a Call on Hold
You can place the current call on hold whenever you
want. You can make another call while you have a call
in progress if this service is supported by the network.
Of these two calls, one is active and the other is on
hold and you can swap between the calls.
To place a call on hold, simply press the Hold soft
key. You can reactivate the call whenever you want,
by pressing the Retrieve soft key.
To make a call while you have a call in progress,
proceed as follows.
1. Key in the phone number that you wish to dial or
look it up in the phonebook.
2. Press the
key to dial the second call.
The first call is automatically put on hold.
Or alternatively, proceed as follows.
1. Put the current call on hold by pressing the Hold
soft key.
2. Make the second call in the normal way.
To swap between the two calls, simply press the
or key.
The current call is placed on hold and the call on
hold is reactivated so that you can continue
conversing with the other party.
To end the call on hold, press the
soft key and
select the End held call option.
When you have finished, end each call normally by
pressing the
key.
