You can use the hold feature to hold one line
while accessing another, or as part of the
conference and call transfer features.
While on a call, press and release [HOLD]. The
LINE light for the line on hold flashes slowly
in green, and a double-beep sounds every 30
seconds to remind you that the call is on hold (To
turn off the reminder beep, see HOLD REMINDER
on page 36 of the installation guide.
If you were using the handset, you can place
the handset in the telephone base without

turned off when you press [HOLD].
To release hold, press and release the [LINE]
button of the call on hold.
