Making a Conference Call
This option joins the active call with a held call. With Conference Call, you can have a conference
with up to five other telephones. At any time during your call, you can add, disconnect or
separate individuals from the Conference Call using other “In-Call” menu options.
A You must subscribe to both Conference Call and Call Waiting Supplementary Services
to be able to use this feature.

will then have one active call and one call on hold.
Press the
$ key to enter the “In-Call” menu and select Conference Call . The currently
active call and the call on hold will then join into one Conference Call.
Managing a Conference Call
While in a Conference Call, you will have the option to add new calls to the Conference Call or
separate one of the members from the Conference Call.
Adding a New Call
There are a number of different ways to add new calls to the Conference Call:
• Using the digit keys.
• Using the Make New Call option from the “In-Call” menu.

No matter which method is chosen to add a new call, the original Conference Call will be first
placed on hold while the new call is being connected. You must then enter the “In-Call” menu
and select
Conference Call to join the New Call with the original Conference Call in
progress.
Separate One of the Members in the Conference

main Conference Call.

calls on hold.

the phone number or name of all members of the Conference Call. Use the scroll keys to find the
selected member of the Conference Call. Once the desired member is selected, press the
