Placing a Call on Hold 
While on a call, you can place the call on hold, so that the caller cannot hear you 
and you cannot hear the caller. You can answer other calls while a call is on 
hold. 
•  To place a call on hold, press the Hold soft key.  
•  To return to the call, press the Resume soft key. If multiple calls are on 
hold, use the scroll key to select the desired call before you press 
Resume.  
•  If multiple calls on multiple lines are on hold, press the line button for the 
line to which you want to switch and use the scroll keys to select the 
desired call before you press Resume.

call.
