OCall Holding and Call Waiting

Your phone supports the GSM network options of Call Holding
and Call Waiting. Using these options you can place a current
phone call on hold and accept an incoming call or start a second
call.

The Call Waiting menu item has two settings On or Off. If you
select Off, you will be not be notified of waiting calls. The person
trying to contact you will either receive the busy tone, or be
diverted by the ‘Detailed Diverting - If Busy’ option.

If Call Waiting is On, you will be notified of a waiting call by an
audible alert and by the message Call Waiting - Answer? .
You can press

O to accept the waiting call, or use M to

scroll to an alternative option and then press

O.

A

If you have Caller Line Identification, the caller’s number or
name is displayed instead of the Call Waiting message.

Call Holding and Call Waiting Scenarios

The display will automatically change according to the status of
your current call (or calls) and will propose the option that you
are most likely to want. Press

O to accept this option or press

M to scroll through the alternative options. By following this
procedure you will find that even the triple combination of an
active call, a held call, and a call waiting is easy to manage.

The following points summarise the more common situations:

To end the active call, press

O. If you have a call on hold it

is automatically connected.

To put the active call on hold and make another call, press

M and select the Hold Call option, then press M
again and select the Make New Call option

1

.

To put the active call on hold and reconnect a held call, press

M and then select the Switch Calls option.

To accept a waiting call, press

O. The active call will be

placed on hold. If you prefer to end the active call before
accepting the waiting call, press

M and select the End

Active Call option, or End Held Call option as
appropriate.

To reject a waiting call, press

M and select the Reject

Call Waiting option (or simply press C).

1. A quicker method of making another call is to enter the number to be

called directly. As soon as you press the first digit, the display will
change to
Call?. This will disappear three seconds after the last key
press, but if you press

O

before then, your phone will place the

current call on hold and attempt to call the number entered.
