Voice call transfer
The voice call transfer is a network service which
enables you to connect two voice calls together
and disconnect yourself from both calls.
The network may provide the possibility to trans-
fer calls while you have one call on hold and one
(outgoing) alerting call. After the alerting has
begun, you may disconnect yourself from both
calls and thus leave the held caller waiting for
the third party to answer.
Note:
The transfer operation can be made only if
you have one held call and one active call; all
calls are voice calls (fax or data calls cannot be
transferred); and none of the calls is a confer-
ence call.
There are two ways to transfer voice calls from
the phone interface:
1) Press 4 followed by , or
2) Press and hold the Menu key for a second.
Choose the
Transfer
option in the menu and
press
OK
, or press
Quit
to cancel.
Calls can also be transferred from the communi-
cator interface. When you have one call on hold
and another call active, press
Call commands
and choose the option
Transfer call
. Press
OK
.
Answering a waiting call
Call waiting is a network service which must be
activated before you can use it (see "Telephone
settings").
When Call waiting is active, if you receive a new
call while you already have an active voice call,
you will see a note informing you of this.
A waiting call is answered, like any call, by se-
lecting the waiting call and pressing
Answer call
.
The previous call will be put on hold.
