6.7.1 Leaving a 3-Way Conference You Set up without Disconnecting the
Others
A caller who sets up a three-way conference call with two other parties can leave it without
disconnecting the two other parties. The two others continue uninterrupted. The 'Drop from
Conference' feature supports this capability.

To leave a conference you set up, without disconnecting the other parties:
Press the Transfer softkey; you're disconnected from the conference; the two remaining

parties continue unaffected.
Note:
The initiator of a call conference can also drop out of the conference by on-hooking the
phone, without disrupting parties B and C. In a conference call initiated by user A with
participants B and C, user A can on-hook to drop out, and B and C can continue talking
uninterruptedly.
