With Call Waiting Caller ID service, a tone also
alerts you there is a new call coming while you
are on an existing call. You will experience a
short period of silence as the Caller ID informa-
tion is processed.
• When a call waiting signal is received, CALL
WAITING flashes in the display. The name and
telephone number of the person who is calling
also appears in the display for 20 seconds.
• Press CALL WAITING to put the existing call on
hold and answer the new call.
• If you choose not to answer the call, the Call
Waiting Caller ID information is stored for
future reference.
• When you finish the call, press CALL WAITING
to return to the original call.
TIP: If you choose not to use any of the Call
Waiting options, you may simply ignore the call
waiting beeps and continue your conversation.
The person calling will hear a continuous ring, as
if you are not home, or may be transferred to a
voice mail account if available.
IMPORTANT: To use the Call Waiting feature of
this unit, the phone you are using must be
connected directly to the unit.
