Hold

While on a call, press and release H. The LINE light
for the line on hold flashes slowly in green, and a
double-beep sounds every 30 seconds to remind you
the call is on hold. (To turn off the reminder beep, see
Turn hold reminder on or off on page 31.) If you
were using the handset, you can replace the handset in
the base unit without disconnecting the call. If you were
using the speakerphone, the speakerphone is automatically
turned off when you press H.
To release hold, press and release the LINE button of
the call on hold.
NOTE: The phone automatically disconnects a call
on hold after 20 minutes. To keep a call on hold longer
than 20 minutes, release hold before 20 minutes and
then place the call on hold again.
NOTE: You cannot put an intercom call on hold.
NOTE: If a line is in use, pressing I will place
the line on hold and activate the intercom.

Switch between lines

1. Press and release H to keep a call on the
first line.
2. Press and release the LINE button of another
line to make or answer another call.
NOTE: If you switch lines without pressing H first,
you will drop the call.
