Press the Pickup key during a two-party
call or a conference call. Or get a dial tone
and dial * 3.
The other call is placed on consultation
hold.
Dial the extension where the call to be
picked up is located.
If the call you are picking up is on busy
standby queuing for your line, you will
already be connected to it now. You do not
have to dial an extension for it.
After the picked up party answers, press
the Conference (CONF) key to join all the
parties. All parties will hear a conference
tone to signal that another party has joined
the call.
If the picked up party does not want to join
the conference, press the Clear key. This
disconnects the picked up party and returns
you to the original call.
