Adding Yourself to a Shared-Line Call
Depending on how your phone is configured, you can add yourself to a call on a shared line using
either Barge or cBarge.
Tips
• If a phone that is using the shared line has Privacy enabled, call information and barge softkeys
will not appear on the other phones that share the line.
• You will be disconnected from a call that you have joined using Barge if the call is put on hold,
transferred, or turned into a conference call.
