One call on hold
Press to put the ongoing call on hold. Held calls are indicated threefold:
◦ By the text on the display.
◦ By the slowly blinking line key.
◦ By the slowly blinking call indication LED.
◦ By the double beep.
You can now:
◦ transfer the held call blindly or with prior announcement - see
"Transferring calls" on page 60.
◦ receive and make calls and put other calls on hold.
Pick up the held call by pressing its line key or by pressing again. If the other party hangs up
while on hold, the call is terminated on your phone as well, and the LED indicators are turned o.
Holding multiple calls
If you are in a call with one party and have one or more calls on hold or if there is more than one call
on hold, the symbol is available in the function key line. You can switch back and forth between
the active call and any call on hold. Up to six simultaneous calls are possible, if supported by the PBX.
• In Fig. 1–2 the phone is in one active call with a second call on hold. Fig. 1 shows the connected
call, Fig. 2 the call on hold. Press the function key underneath / to show the call not
currently on screen.
