Call Waiting

If you are on a call, and receive an incoming call from an outside
number, the handset displays the Call Waiting screen. If you
answer the call, your active call will be put on hold.
To answer the incoming call:
• Press
ANSWER
You can also ignore or reject the incoming call. See the next sections, "Ignoring
calls" and "Rejecting calls."

Ignoring calls

You can ignore an incoming call from an outside number if you don't want to
answer the call right away, but want to pick up the call later.
• If you ignore the call during an active call, and no other handsets/desksets
answer the ignored call, your handset will ring again for the ignored call when
you disconnect your call.
• If you ignore the call while your handset is idle, your handset will not ring
again for the ignored call.
To ignore an incoming call:
• Press
IGNORE
The ignored call will be shown in the Call List until it is picked up by
another handset/deskset. You can pick up the ignored call from the Call
List - see "To view the Call List:" on page 34.

Dismissing calls

You can dismiss an incoming call from an outside number if you don't want to
answer the call, and you don't want to pick up the call later.
• If you dismiss the call during an active call, the dismissed call will continue to
ring on other handset/desksets until it is answered or ignored/dismissed by
all handsets/desksets.
• Your handset will not ring again for the dismissed call.
To dismiss an incoming call during an active call:
1. Press MENU on the "Call Waiting" screen.
2. Press
YES
"Dismiss call? Dismissed call does not ringback."

Missed Calls
