You can direct F F F F F R R R R R ITZ!X PC ITZ!X PC ITZ!X PC to signal your line if an external party ITZ!X PC

wishes to reach you while your line is busy. Incoming outside
calls are indicated by a call waiting tone in the receiver. You
then have 30 seconds to establish a connection with the new
caller, thereafter the call will be rejected. An incoming call also
can be rejected actively, with the caller receiving a busy signal
instead.
A waiting call is accepted by holding (see below) or by ending
(hanging up) the current conversation. In the latter case the
telephone will ring as soon as the receiver is returned to the
cradle. Simply lift the receiver to start a conversation with the
new party.
To reject a waiting call, proceed as follows:
Enter the key combination illustrated at left.
The „Call Hold" function allows you to hold a current call in order
to converse with another party.
Putting a caller on hold means that you can speak with other
parties in the office or make a second call without the party on
hold hearing your conversation. Once your consultation is
complete, you can re-establish the connection to the first
conversation party.
Proceed as follows to hold a conversation and then retrieve it:
You are conducting a conversation with party 1.
Press the call hold button. Party 1 will be put on hold and
you are free to speak with other parties.
To connect with party 2, enter the desired extension
number, or the outside telephone number preceded by „0".
