phone.
There are three ways you can pick up a call:
1 Pickup—Allows you to answer a call that is ringing on another phone within your call pickup group.
If multiple calls are available for pick up, your phone picks up the oldest call first (the call that has been
ringing for the longest time).
2 Group Pickup—Allows you to answer a call on a phone that is outside your call pickup group by:
3 Other Pickup—Allows you to answer a call that is ringing on another phone within in your call pickup
group or in an associated call pickup group.
