Answering a Call On Another Line

If you are making a call on a multiline telephone, incom-
ing calls on other lines are signalled by a line key.
The administrator can configure one of the following op-
tions for your telephone:
• No ring when active on the telephone
• An advisory tone (a quieter ring tone than usual)
while you are conducting a call
To answer a call on another line, you can press the line
key that is alerting. The current call is automatically
placed on hold. You can also refuse or deflect the call as
described on

Holding a Call

You can use this function to put a current call on "hold"
to prevent the party at the other end of the line from
hearing an internal consultation for instance.
The "Hold" function must be activated by the ad-
ministrator.
If you have a multiline telephone and proceed as
described in this section, the held party can be
picked up by any other multiline user with the
same line key. If you do not want the held party
to be picked up, you must put the party on "Con-
sultation hold"
