Receiving a Call

When you receive a call, the phone rings and the indicator light on the top
of the phone blinks green rapidly. The display appears similar to:

Answering a Call

Press YES to answer the call. When the call is finished, press NO.

Rejecting a Call

Press NO when the phone rings. If the caller's network supports it, the
caller will hear a busy tone.

Unanswered Calls

If you have been unable to answer, the number of unanswered calls will
be shown in the display, for example 'Calls: 2', until you press CLR. To
answer the calls, see "To dial the last 10 numbers dialled, received or
missed" on page 19.

Putting a Call on Hold

If you are engaged in a call, you can put it on hold by pressing YES. This
mutes the microphone so that you can have a private conversion without
the person at the other end hearing. To take the call off hold, press YES
again.

Calling Line Identification (CLI)

The Calling Line Identification service (sometimes known as Caller ID)
shows the caller's phone number when you receive a call (you have to
order this service). If the caller's name is stored in your phone book, the
name is displayed instead of the number.
