HOLD
To place a speakerphone call on hold,
press

indicator on the base lights. Neither
you nor the other party can hear each
other.
The phone disconnects the call 5 min-
utes after you put it on hold. However,
during those 5 minutes, a series of
beeps reminds you the call is on hold.
After 1 minute, the base beeps every
15 seconds. After 4 minutes, the base
beeps every 5 seconds. After 5 min-
utes, the base sounds a long tone and
disconnects the call.
To take a call off hold and resume your
conversation, press
SPEAKER on the
base or TALK on the handset. The
HOLD indicator turns off.
Note: If you want to put a call on hold
that you made or received with the
handset, you must switch to the speak-
erphone first.
