Using the swap function
While you are announcing a conference call to the next person to join, you have the option to switch between the
new participant and the rest of the group. For example, somebody you have dialled might ask if it would be
appropriate for another person to listen in to the call on speaker; you can then agree this with the rest of the
participants before completing the call. To switch between the existing conference call and the new addition to the
group, press the Swap softkey.
Cancelling a conference dial
If you attempt to bring somebody into a conference call but they are unavailable, you will need to terminate that call
and then re-join the conference. There are two methods for doing this depending on whether the call has been
answered or not:

If the call has not been answered: press the Cancel softkey to cancel a conference dial when the phone is still
ringing.

If the call has been answered: press the End Call softkey to cancel a conference dial which has been answered
or has gone to voicemail.
When you have cancelled a conference dial, the conference call will remain on hold for you. To re-enter the
conference, you will need to press the Resume softkey.
You will also need to resume the call if the person you tried to add has hung up.
Leaving a conference call
Anybody – including the dialler – can leave a conference call at any time by hanging up the phone. If they wish to re-
join, they will then have to be added back in by a member of the group.
The conference call will end when the last person leaves the call.
Viewing a list of participants
Pressing the Details softkey during a conference call will bring up a list of the active participants.
Removing people from a conference call
The dialler has the option to remove people from a conference call.

Press the Details softkey to bring up a list of participants.

Use the navigation bar to highlight the name or number of the person you wish to remove.

Press the Remove softkey.
