The five function keys on the PID99 unit enable you to more effectively
manage Call Waiting calls. These functions allow you to send the waiting
caller a message asking them to hold, answer an incoming Call Waiting
call, send the call to voice mail, drop the existing call and answer the new
call or add the incoming caller into your conversation. Call Waiting Deluxe
function keys, noted by the functions listed below, are only active during
a Call Waiting call, otherwise the default key functions of MESSAGE, FLASH,
REDIAL and MUTE apply.

With Call Waiting, if a call comes in while you’re on the line, a brief
tone signals you that another caller is trying to get through. The brief
Call Waiting tone is easily recognizable while you’re on the phone. When
you hear it, you have the option to take the new call or not. To switch
over to the new call, just press and release the CALL WAITING button.
To switch back to the first call, press and release the CALL WAITING button
again. You can also deactivate Call Waiting on an as-needed basis – for
example, before placing an important call or connecting to the Internet.
Just hit *70 before dialing the number to ensure you are not interrupted
during the call.

When a Call Waiting call is received, by pressing this key the waiting
